Isaiah Thomas and Kyle Kuzma have only been teammates since February and they’re separated by seven years in age and 12 inches in height, but the two players have established a big bro, little bro camaraderie. Kuzma has admitted that Isaiah is always yelling at him on the court but the two chalk it up to a veteran instilling knowledge on a young grasshopper.
And it’s worked. Kuzma averaged 16.1 points and 5.1 rebounds in his first year in thethe league and was recently named NBA All-Rookie First Team with young stars like Ben Simmons, Donovan Mitchell, Jayson Tatum, and Lauri Markkanen.
That didn’t stop Isaiah from clowning on his teammates cliche Instagam pic.

The height jabs are cold blooded.
This one from Lonzo Ball and Kuzma last month was mean.

Boys will be boys…
Was just playing 2k and was dribbling up the court with @isaiahthomas trying to direct pass it to myself and IT didn’t pass to me. I guess this game is real…
