Kuzma has been a good surprise, but it's doubtful he will be any better than your average starting NBA player. Ball still needs work on becoming a scoring threat, either as a slasher or as a shooter, but at first glance he has a good feel for the game around him and has the size advantage to create a lot of mismatches on both ends of the floor. He will need to bulk up though and learn to play with a bit more aggression and decisiveness to make the next step, at the moment he is still one level below Simmons who has clearly outperformed him so far....
