Intangibles
One of the highest IQ players in the NBA — his ability to read offensive patterns defensively, set screens, move without the ball, and make the correct decision in complex situations is exceptional.

Biliyor Muydunuz?
Caruso went undrafted in 2016 but earned his first NBA contract through a G League stint with the South Bay Lakers — turning a practice squad opportunity into a championship ring and a long NBA career.
Lakers fans nicknamed him 'Carushow' for his unexpected highlight-reel dunks, blocks, and alley-oops that made him a cult hero at Staples Center.
His 2021 chase-down block on Giannis Antetokounmpo during the NBA Playoffs became one of the most memorable defensive plays of the decade.
He ranks consistently in the NBA's top 5 in steal percentage — a statistical feat that places him among the game's elite defensive disruptors despite his slender build.
