Kyle Kuzma Returns: New Team, Hot Takes and Summer Side Quests


Listen Later

We’re BACK with another episode of Dawg Talk — live from the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas for NBA Summer League! J Mac, Kenny Gaines, and KCP are joined by a very special returning guest: NBA Champion and Milwaukee Buck Kyle Kuzma.

From reflecting on being traded midseason, to his unexpected love for tap dancing, Kuzma keeps it all the way real. He talks Bucks chemistry, adjusting to playoff expectations, team culture, and playing alongside Giannis. But it wouldn’t be Dawg Talk without a little style talk — and Kuz doesn’t hold back on what’s wrong with NBA tunnel fits, Chrome Hearts overkill, and why style should be about authenticity, not approval.

We also dive into Kuzma’s non-profit work, his upcoming golf tournament, and why giving back to single moms and under-resourced youth hits home. This episode is full of laughs, insight, and that signature Dawg Talk energy.
