Kyle Kuzma of the Los Angeles Lakers is in the midst of his third season in the league, and his Lakers took on the Utah Jazz on Wednesday night. In the first half of that game, Kuzma hit, not one, but two buzzer-beaters to end each quarter.
Both in the first quarter:

Both of those triples put the Lakers up by a sizable margin over the Jazz. After a First Team All-Rookie showing in his first year in the league as well as an 18.7 PPG, 5.5 RPG, 2.5 APG season in his second year last season, Kuzma will likely be on his first winning team in 2019-20 thanks to LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
The 24-year-old was seemingly the only player that the Lakers were unwilling to move in order to acquire AD, and it’s good to see the young gun getting back in the groove this year.
