NBA Daily Notes: The Pistons finally win; top fantasy picks for December 16th

PF 2 - Kyle Kuzma (Los Angeles Lakers):

The Los Angeles Lakers were being touted as the team to beat to start the season, but then their not as good start had people wondering if they were indeed any good and doubted their playoff potential too. As we read in one of our previous slides, the Los Angeles Lakers are currently on a roll, having won 7 of their last 10 games. They are 4th in the Western Conference and have a 18-11 record this season. One of the players responsible apart from LeBron James this season. has got to be Kyle Kuzma, who has stepped in and become the #2 scoring option on the Lakers.

Kyle Kuzma has been playing really well in his sophomore season

Kuzma has been great in his first 26 games this season. He has averaged 18 points per game, grabbing 6 boards as well. He is becoming a better defender too, getting almost either a block or a steal every game. Over the past 5 matches, Kuzma has scored more than 20 points in all but 1 match and has averaged almost 6 rebounds per game as well. He seems to be getting better with every passing game. His next chance to take the floor comes against the Washington Wizards, who do not have a good front court and he will be looking to take some advantage of it.

Alternate pick: Domantas Sabonis (Indiana Pacers)
