Los Angeles Lakers small forward Kyle Kuzma had a strong reaction to Jacob Blake getting shot by police officers in front of his family in Wisconsin.
Warning, the video is pretty graphic:
And if you’re defending this act…you’re a piece of 💩 and the part of the problem. Ya he’s walking away but that doesn’t mean you SHOOT MULTIPLE TIMES!!! https://t.co/4rqU9shNQf

Jacob Blake is said to be in critical care at the moment. Hopefully, he is able to survive this tragic event.
Kyle Kuzma and the Lakers have a big game on Monday evening against the Portland Trail Blazers, as Los Angeles looks to take a commanding 3-1 series lead in the first-round series.
However, Kuzma and all the players in the Orlando bubble will likely speak out about the Jacob Blake shooting during their press sessions with the media at Walt Disney World. These players have made it a point to speak out against racial injustice throughout the NBA restart, and this will only add fuel to their fire.
Kuzma is averaging 9.3 points and 5.7 rebounds in the Blazers series thus far. He's shooting 34.6 percent from the field, 20.0 percent from beyond the arc and 80.0 percent from the free-throw line.
Kuzma's Lakers teammate, LeBron James, also tweeted about the Jacob Blake shooting on Monday.
