We're running out of ways to explain Kyle Kuzma's impressive start to 2017-18. LAL's most consistent scoring threat, Kuzma returned to Luke Walton's starting five and produced a career night. 

Mike D'Antoni's Rockets fell victim for the first time in 15 games, while LA's rooks continued to shine.  

*Without K. Caldwell-Pope & B. Lopez

career-high 38!, 7 boards & 4! dimes, 0! TOs @ HOU

7/10 from deep = the most impressive part of Kuzma's night? Or was it the 0 turnovers or 71% shooting (12/17). 

He's earned every right as LAL's go-to guy (& Top DOG?) early on - avg. 27.6 ppg his last 3, Coach Walton should keep him as a starter.
