Washington Wizards star Kyle Kuzma is not afraid to take bold fashion choices, again leaving NBA fans stunned by his latest look.
Last season, Kuzma made waves with an oversized pink sweater, which is no mean feat for a 208cm giant with a 214cm wingspan.

He was at it again today in his Washington Wizards’ 125-123 loss to the Brooklyn Nets, wearing a bizarre oversized puffer jacket.
Kuzma has been on fire this season, having scored 21.6 points, 7.7 points and 4 assists per match this year, up from 16.4 points, 6.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists in his career so far.
But it was a bad day for Kuzma after he suffered an ankle injury after stepping on a nets player’s foot.
He had two points, two rebounds and five assists in 11 minutes.
However, it was his outfit that stole all the attention, with fans unable to fathom the bizarre fashion statement.
Likened to an airbag or the reported spy balloon shot down over American waters, fans had a field day with the look.
The New Orleans Pelican’s Larry Nance Jr. commented: “Bro wtf is this?”
Memphis Grizzlies’ Danny Green added: “Bruh TF goin on over here?!?
Pro basketballer Javontae Hawkins called it a “Walking blowup mattress”.
Bleacher Report’s Andy Bailey posted: “I wonder if Kyle Kuzma has seen Zoolander.”
New Orleans Saints writer commented: “The Incredible Hulk fit”.
ESPN reported the look may have been because of an Arctic blast which hit New York on Friday and Saturday.
It was reportedly -4 degrees Celsius when the match started, but felt more like -9 degrees because of the wind chill.
So who’s laughing now …
Kuzma, who previously played for the Lakers, revealed around the time of his pink sweater statement that he was a big fan of fashion.
“Clothing has always been a big thing to me,” he said. “Obviously, I love fashion and it’s a way for me to put my creativity on the line and also generate a business. Life is all about art, and I think the first impression in life is always what you wear.
“And I always look at fashion not as I’m just putting on clothes, but I’m putting together a story and putting together a look that when you see me, it’s a conversation piece. It’s something we can start a conversation over and talk about. There are just so many outlets that fashion brings.”
