After LeBron James signed with his team earlier this summer, Kyle Kuzma can now add another W to the books.
Famous Los Angeles-area tattoo artist Herchell Carrasco took to Instagram on Saturday to show off some new work that he did on the Los Angeles Lakers forward. Kuzma got a bottle that read “Kuz’s Secret Stuff” inked onto his right thigh. The tattoo is an obvious and iconic reference to “Michael’s Secret Stuff” from “Space Jam.” Harrison Faigen of Silver Screen & Roll shared the image:

The 23-year-old Kuzma averaged 16.1 points and 6.3 rebounds per game for the Lakers as a rookie last season, so the hope will be that his bottle of secret stuff leads him to a second-year leap as he plays alongside James.
Kuzma definitely deserves props for such an epic tat (especially with the attention to detail in including Bugs Bunny’s hand). But this may not even be the best homage to “Space Jam” that we have seen in sports so far this year.
