Kyle Kuzma was recently traded from the Washington Wizards to the Milwaukee Bucks. The 2020 NBA Champion had spent part of four seasons with Washington. On Monday night, Kuzma played his third game for the Bucks.

NBA veteran Kyle Kuzma will join the Bucks after a trade that sent Khris Middleton to Washington. Here's what to know about Kuzma.

Bucks general manager Jon Horst explained that there's more than just comparing Kyle Kuzma to Khris Middleton in the latest trade.

Horst spoke to reporters for 25 minutes to discuss a variety of topics about the Bucks' moves around the trade deadline.

Kuzma 19pts/13reb/4ast – Lopez 11pts/7reb/2ast – Prince 11pts/4reb/2ast – Porter 11pts/8reb/5ast The Bucks are 29-24 on the season. They next play on Feb. 20 in Milwaukee vs. the Clippers. Big sequence there.

What role the 29-year-old forward will fill is unclear, but he's eager to contribute alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard.

The Milwaukee Bucks are trading NBA champion and Olympic gold medalist Khris Middleton to the Washington Wizards and getting Kyle Kuzma back in the deal, according to a person with knowledge of the agreement.

The Milwaukee Bucks are the latest team to make a big move before the trade deadline. They have decided to send Khris Middleton, AJ Johnson, and a pick-swap to the Wizards in return for Kyle Kuzma, Patrick Baldwin Jr., and a second-round pick.
