Los Angeles Lakers rookie Kyle Kuzma roasted his teammate Lonzo Ball so hard that he was given an award. In Bleacher Report’s inaugural “Sauce Awards,” an online awards show that caters to the more fun side of the NBA, Kuzma was named “Player Hater of the Year” for his season-long dedication to roasting his teammates.
Made famous by comedian Dave Chappelle on the “Chappelle’s Show” in 2003, the Playa Haters are masters in the art of hating. With the amount of time Kuzma spent hating on his teammates this past season, it’s no surprise he took the title from reigning “Player Hater of the Year” Silky Johnson.
