Shannon Sharpe Wants to See Kyle Kuzma Traded For This Former All-Star

On a recent episode of ESPN's «Undisputed», Shannon Sharpe went on a tirade, claiming that he would trade Kyle Kuzma for essentially anything (including rapper JCole).


More notably, Sharpe noted that Kuzma was a player that had to be spoon-fed by superstar Lebron James. Among his many brash claims, Sharpe commented that the Lakers should trade Kuzma for Spurs' Star DeMar DeRozan. DeRozan, who has played for the Spurs since being dealt in the 2018 Kawhi Leonard Trade, doesn't appear to be a solution to the Lakers' problems.

The Lakers have struggled immensely with three-point shooting, relying on their defense and the inside games of Anthony Davis and Lebron James to carry them to victory. While DeRozan is a great player, his three-point shooting is lacking and he appears to be strong in areas where the Lakers aren't wanting for improvement.


All indications have shown that Kuzma will be on a new roster at the beginning of next season, however, it is yet to be seen if his trade value is high enough to trade for a player of DeRozan's caliber.
