Kyle Kuzma Embraced A Fan In Japan Who Wore His Iconic Pink Sweater: "He's A Legend"
Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports

Kyle Kuzma embraced a fan who wore his iconic oversized pink sweater before their pre-season game against the Golden State Warriors in Japan.

The NBA players of today are more skilled than ever before and the game has evolved so much too, but one thing that hasn't changed is their questionable fashion sense. Over the years, we have seen players wear some truly bizarre clothes when they enter the arena as well as in post-game press conferences, and it might actually be getting worse now than it was in the past.

We have seen Charles Barkley hilariously lose his mind on TNT over the years, seeing the attire of guys like James Harden and Russell Westbrook, who do show up in some wacky clothes from time to time. Still, they probably don't even come close to Kyle Kuzma, who has some very questionable fashion sense, to say the least.

Kuzma has been flaunting his unique fashion sense this offseason and was at the New York Fashion Week in September, where he got trolled by fans for wearing a bizarre black dress. Of all of Kuzma's viral attires over the years, there is one that perhaps stands out more than others, and that was when he wore an oversized pink sweater last year. It was so hilarious that even LeBron James called him out and a Japanese fan recently wore a similar sweater to the pre-season game between the Wizards and the Warriors.

It was nice of Kuzma to embrace the fan, and the legend of that sweater is really going to live on forever. Unfortunately for the fan and for Kuzma, the Wizards lost out to the Warriors 96-87 and it does seem like it is going to be another rough season for the team in the nation's capital.

The Wizards haven't even won 40 games in any of their last 4 seasons and finished 12th in the Eastern Conference in 2021-22 with just 35 wins. They haven't made any significant additions to their roster either and with the East looking more stacked than it has ever been in years; we don't see them even sniffing the playoffs.

Kuzma also made some headlines recently when he spoke about being traded by the Los Angeles Lakers last year. He stated that he was in a dark place because of the narratives surrounding his exit, which hurt him a little bit, but he is in a better frame of mind now, which is good to see.
