Kyle Kuzma has parted ways with his agents Mark Bartelstein and Zach Kurtin of Priority Sports and Entertainment.

Kuzma has yet to meet with new prospective agents.

“I wish nothing but the best for Kyle,” Bartelstein said. “This was simply a situation in which it became clear our visions were not aligned. When that is the case, it simply does not make sense to continue our partnership.”

Kuzma trademarked “Kuzmania” shortly after entering the NBA, created branded merchandise and has taken business trips to China the last two summers.

Kuzma is the new Lonzo. Everything he does makes news when his actual game play doesn’t even come close to matching the attention he gets by the media. Why is a role player branding phrases like “Kuzmania” and why does him switching agents rate an article??

This guy is a third option on a playoff team, so if you call Ginobili, Bosh, R.Allen, Love, Klay, Dray role players I can’t see your logic. Look at the numbers bra, this coming from a Celtics fan.

Kuzma has not made the playoffs yet in his career. And he may not even be a starter next season.

"SITUATION WHERE OUR VISIONS DONT ALIGN?" Bi&#@ what u talkin bout? THERES ONLY 1 VISION. Kuzmas! This is why Klutch is better for Kuzma. Its all about Player Empowerment. Kuzmas vision. NOT what THE MAN sees is best for you.

You just compared Kuzma to a bunch of multiple time all-stars and hall of famers :-?

Why are there a lot of Laker fans? Why do so many people live in So Cal?

Start with those questions and you'll answer your other ones.

Because he's in LA, where he gets talked about. Pretty sure he had a quote about it this year.
