Kuzma is going through the ninth season of his career, his second with the Bucks. He has been in and out of the starting lineup but has garnered a bigger role with Giannis Antetokounmpo out due to a calf strain injury.<\/p>\n

They were due for a big matchup against the Celtics, meaning he would have assignments against the leading scorer Brown. There was an instance during the game where Kuzma was preparing to take free throws. Before taking one, he looked at Brown and took a verbal jab at him<\/a> in reference to his live streaming.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is not a stream,\u201d Kuzma said to Brown.<\/p>\n
