Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma will join future Hall of Famer Kobe Bryant as the hosts of this year's Mamba Sports Academy:

Kuzma was a huge Kobe fan growing up, and in his young career in the NBA, he has already shown some similarities to the playing style of The Black Mamba. As one of the hosts of this event, Kuzma will likely use the opportunity to get some advice from Bryant on how to improve his game.

The Mamba Sports Academy is a joint sports-centered business venture between Bryant and Sports Academy CEO Chad Faulkner. It has been running for several years now, with the goal of providing training to young individuals, which will help them become better athletes as they grow up. Several NBA players have already been invited by Kobe to join him in the past, and now Kuzma will have the opportunity to teach kids with The Mamba.

The timing of this tweet was rather impeccable. The youngster is currently involved in trade rumors featuring Anthony Davis, with rumblings that the Lakers really want to keep Kuzma while the New Orleans Pelicans want him. Of course, even if Kuzma gets traded within the next 24-48 hours, he will still be a host of the Mamba Sports Academy.

Kyle Kuzma is constantly improving. He was the Lakers' second-leading scorer last season, and he has shown flashes of becoming an All-Star in the future. Lakers fans would love it if he stayed in Los Angeles.
