Basketball isn’t the only thing Los Angeles Lakers star Kyle Kuzma has been focusing on while Down Under with Team USA.

He also seems to have an interest in Australian women.

Kuzma, who was formerly linked to supermodel and reality star Kendall Jenner, is said to have been spending time with Australian model Nicole Shiraz.

Shiraz, who lives in LA half of the year and Sydney the other, has reportedly been seen in Kuzma’s Instagram videos.

Shiraz, who appears to be a sunglasses designer, has much in common with Jenner and spends her days travelling, “influencing” and sharing racy images online.

Team USA is in Australia for warm-up games ahead of the FIBA World Cup.

Scandal surrounded the much-hyped event earlier this week when fans who had paid big money to watch the Boomers play Team USA in Melbourne were allocated seats too far away to view the game. Australia’s consumer watchdog is investigating.
