Kyle Kuzma competitive bond with Isaiah Thomas involves some screaming matches

Kyle Kuzma laughed when asked what Lakers teammate Isaiah Thomas says to him on the court.

"He yells at me a lot," Kuzma said, good-naturedly. "He's just a veteran. A guy you can count on. He's been through the wars. Been through the playoffs. He knows what it takes to win or whatnot. He's just a great resource to have out there. He helps all the young guys out for sure."

As Thomas familiarizes himself with the Lakers roster, he's been a boon to other players too. He and Julius Randle, who was the only Laker to have a better game than Thomas on Sunday night, developed strong chemistry on screen-and-roll plays throughout the game.
