According to the report of The Athletic reporter Shams Charania and Josh Robbins, the Wizards team intends to sell the 24-year-old Japanese forward, the elite eight village base.
In the 2019 draft conference, the wizard picked eight village bases in the ninth place.
After joining the wizard, his average score per game has reached double digits for four consecutive seasons, and his performance is commendable.

It is mentioned in the article that Kyle Kuzma has also received a lot of interest from other teams in addition to the eight village base, but trading the eight village base can reduce the overcrowding situation of the wizard forward position.
Kuzma previously said that the power forward is the most comfortable position for him to play, and the position of the eight village base is the power forward, while the other forward, Deni Avdija, who will compete with the eight village base for playing time, can play the small forward position.
According to the news, although Kuzma has a player option of US $13 million after the end of this season, it is expected to give up. The Wizards attach great importance to the value of Kuzma and are willing to renew his contract with him this summer. Therefore, if the wizard trades the eight village bases, it shows that the team is confident to continue the star forward in the team this year. This season, Kuz Horse Field can score 21.6 points and 7.5 rebounds, with a shooting percentage of 45.7%.
Eight village base missed 16 games this season because of his right ankle injury. When he is healthy, he will start from the bench and actively seek his own opportunities. In the 24.2 minutes of playing time, eight village bases can average 12.9 points and shoot 49.2%. Despite the poor shooting performance of the eight village base at the beginning of the season, he still corrected his three-point shooting rate recently. In January 7, the three points of the eight village base came to the level of exactly 40%, with a total of 10 of 25 shots. Both the number of hits and the shooting rate were the highest in this season.
