Alex Caruso amassed 12 points (4-of-6 FGs, 0-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, two assists, one block and four three-pointers in Wednesday’s exhibition against the Bucks.
With Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein sitting, Caruso made his first appearance of the preseason as a starter. The veteran wing shot well, hitting four of his six three-point attempts in 17 minutes. While Caruso has been a solid member of the Thunder rotation the last two seasons, injuries limited his fantasy impact. With the team trading Luguentz Dort, Isaiah Joe and Aaron Wiggins during the offseason, Caruso’s role takes on added importance, potentially pushing him back into fantasy relevance.
