Kuzma, Kyle Utah 6'10" 223 PF jr. Kuzma averaged 16.4 points, and 9.3 rebounds per game as a junior at Utah. He was among the most improved players in the country. That said, the three-ball was inconsistent for him. He made just 30.2% of his three-point attempts (career). This season he was slightly better at 32% 3-pt. ...He had slightly more turnovers than assists in his three seasons. ...His DEFRTG was a hair better than the Utah team DEFRTG. ...Kuzma was solid on the glass, finishing third in the Pac-12 in rebounding percentage in 2016-17. He tested with a 34" max. vert at the NBA Draft Combine. ...The landscape at Power Forward in the NBA is getting more crowded by the day. Kuzma is right on the cusp of being good enough in our opinion. He may need G-League reps before he hits the BIG stage of the NBA. Advice: In 2004, the 13th pick in the NBA Draft was Sebastian Telfair. We advised, "Draft J.R. Smith."
