With the Los Angeles Lakers reportedly considering offloading a struggling Kyle Kuzma to round out their roster for a deep postseason run, it's quite shocking that, at least until the Feb. 6 trade deadline, he isn't entirely fixated on basketball.

Living up to their renowned privacy-violating reputation, TMZ spotted Kuzma on a dinner date with recently heartbroken actress Vanessa Hudgens. Photos of the two celebrities sharing a cocktail at Lilia in Brooklyn can be found at the link below.

For those puzzled as to why Kuzma's restaurant of choice is located in Brooklyn, well, don't be. The Lakers are squaring off against the Knicks at the Mecca on Wednesday night.

The reason that this reported romantic dinner is a big deal is that Hudgens has only been single (and ready to mingle) for less than a week. Of course, her and boyfriend of nine years, Austin Butler, shockingly opted to call it quits. She's already popping up in Brooklyn?!

Does Kuzma have a rebound in mind? Who knows, but his outlandish new hairstyle is clearly working wonders.

Now that this shocker has been publicized, all eyes will be on the Utah product to see how he performs against the Knicks Wednesday night.
