NBA Trade Rumors: Exploring three teams that should be interested in acquiring Kyle Kuzma from the Washington Wizards ahead of the trade deadline.
After a somewhat surprisingly positive start to the season, the Washington Wizards have crashed down to earth over the last few weeks. They’ve lost seven in a row and 10 of their last 11 games. They have the look of a team that is lost and in search of an identity.
Over the next few weeks, one of the biggest questions the Wizards will have to answer is what they plan to do at the NBA Trade Deadline. Will they stand pat or try to retool the roster, especially with two big free-agent decisions coming up for Kristaps Porzingis and Kyle Kuzma?
Though, Kuzma may have tipped his hand. According to a recent report, Kuzma wants out of Washington and that could spark a possible trade deadline change of scenery for him.
Will the Washington Wizards move Kyle Kuzma or roll the dice on his free agency?
This is just one report. Even if it is accurate, there’s no guarantee that the Wizards are going to elect to essentially blow up this season and move Kuzma. He’s been one of the best players on the team this season and trading him would essentially be waving the white flag on the season.
It’s a big question that the Wizards need to answer. But if the Wizards do elect to shop Kuzma ahead of the trade deadline, here are three teams that should be interested in acquiring him.
