Following his breakout rookie season with the Los Angeles Lakers, Kyle Kuzma has used his new platform to promote things bigger than basketball, specifically with children in his hometown of Flint, Michigan and his new home, Los Angeles.
First, on Monday, Kuzma announced the National Basketball Players Association’s (NBPA) partnership with the LA84 Foundation to issue a request for proposal (RFP) to refurbish local basketball courts throughout the Los Angeles, Riverside and San Bernardino Counties.
The “Court Refurbishment Program” is hoping to create “safe and fun spaces” for kids ages 6 through 17 to play basketball.
