Los Angeles Lakers: Three candidates for the third best player

After a 6-1 start to the regular season, the Los Angeles Lakers are rolling and are seemingly improving every game. Obviously their success has been spearheaded by the play of the two-headed monster known as LeBron James and Anthony Davis, but the team’s role players have also been essential in this hot start.

Kyle Kuzma was expected to be the third go-to player on the team after being the only part of the young core that was held onto. However, he is still struggling to catch his footing after missing the start of the regular season due to stress reaction injury suffered from his time with Team USA during training camp.
