It’s not a secret that Kyle Kuzma is one of the least-liked players in the NBA. Ever since he put on those Los Angeles Lakers’ threads for the first time, he’s done nothing but talk, call people outand walk around like a superstar.

There’s no denying his talent and upside, but Kuzma vastly regressed this season and he’s just nowhere near the level he thinks and says he is, which has caused even his own team’s fans to go at him every time he shows up.

More than that, his controversial remarks about Covid-19, the pandemic, politics, and his constant antics on social media have made him one of one NBA Twitter’s main targets over the past season or so.

That’s why it seems like he finally had enough of people clowning him on Twitter and posted a message to his haters, stating that he was going to remind everybody just how good he is and that he wouldn’t tolerate any more disrespect.

Well, it seems like Kuzma didn’t think that through – go figure – as he got the exact opposite response he was expecting and Twitter users just took their bullying up a notch, up to the point where he had no choice but to shut down his Twitter account.

This isn’t the first time Kuzma has been destroyed on social media. As a matter of fact, some fans even started a petition toprevent him from getting aring if the Lakers won the NBA Championship.

To be fair, Kuzma still has plenty of chances to prove his haters wrong. But hey, he’s brought this on himself. No one mocks other players like that because other players don’t usually talk that much or at least back it up on the court.

Now, Kuzma is a likely trade candidate as the Lakers are reportedly wary of signing him to a huge extension after he failed to step up as expected, so he’ll likely have an opportunity to blossom somewhere else and get the respect he says he’s due.
