The Los Angeles Lakers have had to do some micro-managing as of late amidst the recent jabs traded between point guard Lonzo Ball and power forward Kyle Kuzma. As a result, both players have had to tone down their engagement on social media.

The two have had some rather comical exchanges that apparently started to heat up after Ball's recent diss track. However, according to ESPN's Ohm Youngmisuk, Kuzma says the media has blown things out of proportion.

“My reaction is it's we are all good,” said Kuzma. “We all joke. It happens, it's what we do. I feel like, you know, the media, they don't understand the culture that we live in. For us, we are good.”

There is certainly plenty of truth to his comments. Kuzma, Ball, and the rest of this young core have all playfully engaged in the occasional roast sessions via Twitter.
Although Ball's recent jabs at Kuzma's family background may have been considered foul play by some, it is indicative of the banter that goes on between players in the locker room. However, it apparently did not sit well with the Lakers' brass. That said, the players have had to make light of the situation as much as they can.
Needless to say, the players have taken a rather humorous approach to the whole situation with some sarcastic back and forth on social media. It may be tough for most people to understand the dynamic how things work amongst these young players. Perhaps it is best for the Lakers to be able to express themselves if they are going to continue building this team chemistry.
