We're only a few weeks into the new season and already, Washington Wizards star Kyle Kuzma has already found himself on Shatin' a Fool a couple of times. His latest entry came on Monday night as the 27-year-old struggled mightily to tie his shoe in the second quarter against the Charlotte Hornets.
Kuz lost his right shoe after a botched layup attempt, and for a second there, he looked like he had hurt himself a bit. Fortunately, it seemed like he was fine. The Wizards stud did come away with a bruised ego after this hilarious moment, though (h/t Shaqtin' a Fool on Twitter):
"He's gotta invest in some velcro shoes or something, man" 😂

Kuzma took himself out of bounds as he attempted to quickly put his shoe back on. He failed miserably in doing so, and it took him nearly a full minute to get back in the game. Thankfully, his Wizards teammates were able to stop the play by taking a foul, thereby providing Kuzma with enough time to get himself back in the game.




In case you missed it, Kuzma submitted another Shatin' entry last week when he missed a wide-open dunk in transition. Kuz had a clear path to the basket so he decided to attempt his version of former teammate LeBron James' tribute dunk for Kobe Bryant. The Wizards star immediately regretted his decision to do so:

Fortunately for Kuzma, neither of his early entries here should be in contention for Shaqtin' MVP at the end of this season. Nevertheless, the Wizards forward will still want to steer clear of these types of moments moving forward.
