Kyle Kuzma is the latest guest to appear on Complex's "Sneaker Shopping" series, joining host Joe La Puma at Fight Club in Los Angeles to talk all things shoe related.

During the interview, the Lakers forward discussed his love of the Air Jordan 1, becoming a brand ambassador for GOAT, and the time he surprised LeBron James by wearing a pair of his teammate's old sneakers.

"I actually wore a super rare shoe by him," Kuzma said. "It was a 2003. I forget what shoe it was, but I walked in, and it was his actual shoe that he wore during preseason. So, I walked in, I got on the bus, and I'm giddy like this. I sit down and he keeps looking at them like this. That's the one time I probably wore something that really surprised him."
