Next month, the NBA plans to have its players embark on a journey to Disney World where they will compete in the league's first-ever bubble city. This concept is only necessary due to the Coronavirus and players are already having some very justified concerns. However, things took an interesting turn today as it was revealed that Kyrie Irving has brought nearly 200 players together, who are all feeling uncomfortable with the NBA's ambitious plans. In fact, Kyrie and the players will participate in a Zoom call to see where they stand on the issues.

If there is any team that could benefit the most from the league's return, it would be the Los Angeles Lakers who are title contenders. With this in mind, it's not surprising that players like Kyle Kuzma and Jared Dudley came out on Twitter in support of restarting the season. "Some of us want to hoop and compete don’t get that twisted," Kuzma wrote.

While the Coronavirus lockdown may have put a damper on any budding relationships, or would-be couples, it seems like that’s not the case for model Winnie Harlow and basketball player Kyle Kuzma. Today, reports have surfaced that the two have been getting extra friendly during the lockdown.

According to a report from NY Post’s Page Six, the two have been spending a lot of time with each other during the pandemic. The rumors began to spread when the pair were spotted holding hands together while also sporting masks, just ten days ago. Still, neither celebrity has spoken out about any romantic attachments just yet.

Kuzma was previously linked to two other celeb it-girls, namely, Vanessa Hudgens, and prior to that Kendall Jenner, although none were confirmed publicly either. We’ll have to see if Winnie Harlow is the one to receive a public confirmation. Harlow, who is also a model and previous contestant on America’s Next Top Model, has also dated Wiz Khalifa in her past, as well as Lewis Hamilton.

We’ll keep you posted on more developments in this rumored relationship.

Kyle Kuzma might be one of the more polarizing young NBA stars thanks to his looks and social media antics, particularly on TikTok. Kuzma has also been a serial dater when it comes to some of the biggest actresses, models, and stars in the world. He has been linked to Katya Elise Henry, Vanessa Hudgens, and even Kendall Jenner. Now, it appears as though he is getting cozy with the likes of model Winnie Harlow.

The two were spotted together in Los Angeles on Friday and they seemed to be holding hands. Of course, this goes against social distancing rules but when you're trying to get close to someone, those guidelines kind of go out the window. They have both been flirting with each other in their respective IG comments and it seems like they are progressing nicely in their new relationship.

Kyle Kuzma plays for the Los Angeles Lakers which means he has a lot of famous women attending his games. Kuzma has been known to engage in some light flirting with these girls, particularly Vanessa Hudgens who he went on a few dates with a couple of months ago. Now, Kuz is on quarantine like the rest of us and is starting to get into the world of TikTok. One of the platform's biggest stars is none other than Addison Rae who was the subject of The Kid Laroi's latest namesake song.

In the video below, Kuzma took to TikTok while dancing to this very song in what can only be described as a way for the Lakers player to shoot his shot at Rae. We have no idea whether or not the TikTok star saw Kuzma's video but we do know that NBA fans saw it and as you can imagine, Kuzma got some well-deserved flack for it.

Miami Heat rookie Tyler Herro was having himself a fine season on the court before the NBA season was suspended indefinitely. In his 47 appearances, the 20-year old shooting guard is averaging 12.9 points with 4 rebounds per game while shooting 39% from three-point range. 

It's true, the former Kentucky Wildcats' shot is a thing of beauty, whether he's making it rain at AmericanAirlines Arena or simply shooting his shot at a well-known model during a pandemic. 

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma is receiving some backlash for his recent comments about hand sanitizer because this is the world we live in now. According to Kuz, the bottled germ killers that everybody has been rushing to purchase during the coronavirus pandemic are nothing more than a scam to make even more money for companies such Gojo Industries, which manufactures Purell.

Kuzma’s controversial IG story featured a bottle of Purell hand sanitizer along with the following message for his 4.7 million followers, “Now y’all finally finding out companies been taking money from us for years. This don’t work."

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma is back in black after a brief stint as a bleached blonde baller that had basketball fans comparing him to a combination of Slim Shady and Amber Rose. Kuz took to instagram on Monday night to debut his latest look, which drew instant reactions from his teammates and Lakers fans alike.

DeMarcus Cousins, who was recently waived by the Lakers but is expected to remain with the team, led the charge in the comment section as he simply wrote, “Power of prayer" - a reply that was 'liked' nearly 8,000 times. A majority of Lakers fans seemed to agree that Kuzma's new look is for the best, both for him as a player and for the team as a whole, while others suggested that Kuz had no other choice after getting bodied by Zion Williamson on Sunday night.

Whether it was the blonde dye or struggles adjusting to his new role, Kuzma's numbers are down across the board this year, as he is currently averaging 12.7 points with 4.3 rebounds per game. But the return of the black hair has fans believing he's about to turn a corner.

Check out some of the reactions below.

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma inked a multi-year deal with PUMA Basketball prior to the start of the 2019-20 season, as he became the one of the new faces of the revived brand. This week, Kuzma will reportedly help Puma usher in their latest and greatest basketball sneaker – the Puma Sky. 

According to PUMA, the kicks will initially launch in two colorways, including an all-over white and cream “Sky Dreamer” option and a white & navy “Sky Modern” design. Both kicks are equipped with PUMA Hoops tech, including the brand’s signature ProFoam cushioning and high-abrasion grip for peak stability.

The new on-court silhouette, a relaunch from the original style worn in the ‘80s, is a much different look than the low-top Puma Clyde Hardwood that the brand’s ambassadors have been repping on the court this season. The mid-top design features a combination of mesh, leather and suede, highlighted by an ankle strap and a thick, padded ankle collar akin to the Ralph Sampson model of old.

The Sky Dreamer colorway will be available in-stores and online PUMA.com starting Thursday, February 13th, followed by the “Sky Modern” iteration on Saturday, February 15th. Both will retail for $130. Check out the official images below.

Kyle Kuzma has been having an inconsistent season with the Los Angeles Lakers and as a result, he has been the subject of numerous trade rumors and speculation. Despite this, Kuzma has done his best to avoid all of the noise and make his own way. The Lakers have been one of the best teams in the league this season and Kuzma's role has certainly helped them on their journey to first in the Western Conference.

Last night, the Lakers defeated the Phoenix Suns by a score of 125-100. Kuzma only scored nine points in the game but two of the points were truly hilarious. In the clip below, Kuzma is going to the basket when all of a sudden he get fouled. At the last second, he chucks the ball into the air in what seemed to be an unintentional move. Sure enough, the ball went in and Kuzma got an extra shot at the free-throw line. 

Kyle Kuzma has been a key piece to the Los Angeles Lakers puzzle over the last couple of years although he is constantly subjected to trade rumors. Whenever the Lakers try to create a trade package, teams demand they get Kuzma or nothing will get done. The Lakers have been stubborn when it comes to keeping Kuzma and during the trade deadline yesterday, the team opted out of a trade with the New York Knicks for Marcus Morris. Of course, this is because the Knicks wanted Kuzma but the Lakers didn’t want to give him up.

According to Ryan Ward of Clutch Points, Kuzma gave an interesting answer when asked about not being traded and whether or not he feels like there is more pressure for him to succeed.

“Nope,” Kuzma replied. “Just play my role. Come in, play with energy. Crash the boards every time. When I get the ball, just make the best of it. There’s no pressure. The media people they may try to make those extra pressures on you, but I trust my teammates, and I trust what we got going on here. I’m just trying to play my role.”

Kuzma and the Lakers currently sit at a record of 38-12 and are first place in the entire Western Conference. If Kuzma becomes more consistent and the Lakers maintain their play, they will certainly be favorites to win the championship.
