It seems during the Cavs/Wizards game there were a few fans talking trash to Kyle Kuzma and holding signs saying that LeBron James is the only reason he has a ring. The signs may have been a little over the line but the professional athlete may have taken the heckling a little too personally.
In the post-game interview, Kyle Kuzma stated that “I was just ready, I was ready for it. Plus, there were some hecklers during the game, talking to me. It was their fault, really. It was their fault,” he said per TMZ.com.
Kuzma then went on to say “I said, ‘Without LeBron, Cleveland wouldn’t be s***.” Kuzma may have forgotten that his only championship ring was awarded to him thanks in great part to LeBron.
While the Cavaliers also have a championship thanks to LeBron and the rest of the 2016 squad, they’ve been busy rebuilding. The Cavaliers have been making moves that are now starting to pay off, as proven by their hot start to the 2021-2022 season.
Kyle Kuzma has harsh words for Cleveland fans
While Kyle Kuzma could be unhappy about the light heckling in Cleveland, some fans are now taking offense to his criticism of an organization that is in the middle of a rebuild and is currently on the rise.
Taking out your anger on another organization is also not very professional. It will be very interesting to see what happens the next time these two teams face off and how Cleveland fans will react after Kuzma’s recent comments.
Even though the Cavaliers did not walk away with the win this time it was another amazing outing from the duo of Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley. It seems that they just get better every game and that is something Cleveland is going to need this season and many more to come.
As the Cavaliers look to take on the last place Pistons on Friday, they’ll hope to get back in the win column and improve to 8-5 on the young season.
