Frank Vogel opened up about the role of Kyle Kuzma with the Lakers and what he is expecting from the young forward.
According to Vogel, Kuzma is the ‘secondary scoring option’ for the Lakers, but at the same time, he has an advanced role defensively.
“His role on this team is to be a secondary scoring option. There is a mindset is to get him involved some. If he defends and rebounds, he’s helping us win,” Ryan Ward of Lakers Nation reports.
Kuzma has been struggling offensively in the playoffs, but the Lakers managed to steal the home-court advantage and take the upper hand over the Phoenix Suns (1-1).
