The 27th pick from this year's NBA draft is doing quite alright for himself less than a month into his pro career.
Just days after helping guide the Los Angeles Lakers to a Las Vegas Summer League title, with Most Valuable Player honors in the title game to boot, guard Kyle Kuzma announced Thursday via Twitter he will be joining the Nike brand.

Kuzma averaged 21.9 points on 51.4 percent shooting, 6.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.1 steals, and 1.4 blocks across seven summer league outings. This included a 30-point, 10-board performance against the Portland Trail Blazers to help the Lonzo Ball-less Lakers hoist the trophy at the conclusion of the tournament.
