Kyle Kuzma of the Washington Wizards Shares Picture with Russell Westbrook

The 2024 Vogue World took place in Paris and drew a large crowd, including Washington Wizards star Kyle Kuzma and NBA Champion Russell Westbrook. Kuzma posted photos from the event on his Instagram, captioning one picture with “You know my roundabouts baby” and another featuring Westbrook with “Paved the way @russwest44.”

Kuzma had an impressive third season with the Wizards, averaging 22.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 4.2 assists per game. Despite this, the team failed to make the playoffs for the third consecutive year, finishing as the 14th seed in the Eastern Conference with a record of 15-67.

Westbrook, on the other hand, completed his second season with the Los Angeles Clippers and averaged 11.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.1 steals per game. However, despite his contributions to the team’s efforts during regular season, they didn’t advance far in the playoffs.

Before joining the Wizards, Kuzma played a key role in Los Angeles Lakers’ 2020 NBA Championship win against Miami Heat. Following the conclusion of Westbrook’s first season with Lakers he was traded to Washington Wizards as part of deal that sent him to Los Angeles Clippers.

In summary both players had their unique performance with their respective teams but were unable to reach their full potential as they didn’t make it to playoffs
