In comparison to the last few seasons, there is plenty of reason to have hope as a Los Angeles Lakers fan. The roster general manager Rob Pelinka has assembled this summer is easily the most talented one the Lakers have had since Kobe Bryant retired.
It is true that the Lakers may not have a bona fide third All-Star on their team. However, Kyle Kuzma recently went on the record saying that he is capable of ascending to that plateau.
If Kuzma is able to elevate his game to that level this year, a combination of himself, LeBron James, and Anthony Davis could be a rather deadly one.
