Caruso after those last ten games seems like he can be a good backup PG for this team.

Yes. He's good and he's cheap.
He deserves a contract.

Starting, he might give you equal to better minutes/stats than Ball next season.

True, I like Caruso he can sing opera all day, and be effective as a PG.

I doubt he'll match Zo's defense, rebounds and assists.
But if Alex is at that amazing 50% clip from 3s, he's going to outscore him.

But I dont think he's going to get starter minutes. If we have to rely on him being our starting PG, I'll be disappointed.

Seems the kid is worth a backup contract...another late bloomer

AC has earned his stripes the hard way. If he plays 5 or ten minutes, it doesn't matter, he will hold his own. The FO needs to give him a contract.

Caruso’s nickname should be The Fox Hunter. Luke will have no answers...

The Bald Eagle will fly again for the Mighty Lakers.

Perfect inexpensive fit and a steady player.

Alex. You better bring it this year!
I'm actually glad Alex and Kuzma weren't one and done kids. They're more mature (mentally and physically) than their younger draft mates and they should be able to handle the upcoming year as year-3 players well.

I'm rooting for AC
He's a great fit for the Lakers and a good Teammate

But if he can get (after strong season end) anywhere 2 mil he'll be likely gone


Hopefully Lebron can spark him to Delly 2.0
