Los Angeles Lakers: What position should Kyle Kuzma be playing?

For the Los Angeles Lakers, Kyle Kuzma is an example of a player whose position has been hard to pin down. He has the shooting touch of a guard, the size of a nominal power-forward, but at most, has the strength of a wing. Since his rookie year, Kuzma has been spending most of his time at the power forward position, sliding up from his projected position of small forward when he was first drafted and so far, it has yielded mixed results.

When it comes to defining what position is best suited for Kuzma, there are two ways to look at it; offense and defense.
