Registers double-double Friday Kuzma scored 11 points (3-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and collected 13 rebounds across 22 minutes in a win versus New Orleans on Friday.

Impact Kuzma struggled with his shot from inside the arc, converting three of four tries from deep but missing all six of his two-point attempts. However, the fourth-year forward came up big on the boards, grabbing a season-high 13 rebounds in only 22 minutes. Kuzma's output is slightly down the season, as he is thus far posting per-game averages of 10.6 points and 5.1 boards in 24.8 minutes.

Double-doubles off bench Kuzma posted 11 points (4-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 11 rebounds and an assist across 27 minutes off the bench in Tuesday's win over the Rockets.

Impact Kuzma only trailed Anthony Davis and LeBron James in minutes played despite coming off the bench, and he responded to the coaching staff's trust with his second double-double of the season -- both have come across his last four appearances. Kuzma has also scored 10 or more points in three games during that span, and he has been productive, albeit inconsistent, as one of the first players off the bench on a regular basis in a star-studded Lakers roster.

Not starting Friday Kuzma isn't starting Friday's game against the Bulls, Chuck Swirsky of the Bulls Radio Network reports.

Impact Kuzma had started each of the last three games for the Lakers and posted a double-double in Thursday's loss to the Spurs. However, he'll come off the bench Friday with Markieff Morris stepping into the starting five.

Double-doubles vs. Spurs Kuzma had 13 points (6-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt) and 10 rebounds in a loss to San Antonio on Thursday.

Impact Kuzma's stat line was unsurprisingly shot-heavy though his inefficiency was quite visible. He made up for it with rebounds, marking his first 10-rebound game since March 8. It could perhaps be attributed to the absence of Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle), whose injury has allowed Kuzma to start and average 6.0 more minutes of playing time.

Scores 11 points Kuzma had 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in a 109-103 win over the Spurs on Friday.

Impact Kuzma entered Friday's matchup having scored only six points in both of his past two games. He improved against San Antonio and will have a better chance to upgrade his scoring numbers over the next few days. The Lakers face a two-game set at Memphis, whose inexperience and player injuries lie in Kuzma's favor.

Plays well sans Davis Kuzma scored 20 points (8-12 FG, 4-6 3 PT) to go with three rebounds, three assists, three blocks, and a turnover in 29 minutes of Sunday's 127-91 win over Minnesota.

Impact Kuzma drew the start with Anthony Davis out and responded by netting a team-high 20 points. The forward was efficient shooting the rock and added in a team-high three blocks in a team-high 29 minutes. Kuzma showed he can play well taking on a bigger role when Davis needs a rest and is off to a great start this season for LA.
