It’s quite often for the players to shut their critiquing fans of the court. Provoking players during the match with insulting gestures has always been a part of the sport itself. Showing a players glamour with final clutch shots, impressive defensive plays or a turnover dunk in the last minutes of the game, highlights the player’s true potential. But sometimes things get pretty bad when these celebrations often get to an ugly direction. The same happened with Kyle Kuzma during the match against the Detroit Pistons.
Few days back, the Wizards were on the top of the Eastern Conference standings but subsequently got to the 5th spot because of a few close losses. But on December 8, on a match against the Detroit Pistons the Washington Wizards had a very close victory with 199-116 on the final board. Wizards with all-over 15-11 this season have been deliberately consistent with their plays. On the other hand Pistons with 4-20, might not survive until the playoffs. Kyle Kuzma during the match with less than a second left on the clock for overtime, hit a clutch three from the corner and shut his haters of the court. However, the shot got quite viral the next day and it came in Kyle’s favor for his stardom.
