Alex Caruso’s decision on his future with the Lakers is looming, and whether he takes his services to another team or returns won’t be decided until August when the NBA’s free-agency period opens.
He just finished his fourth season with the Lakers, his role increasing every year as Caruso became a key contributor to winning the franchise’s 17th championship last season.
Now Caruso becomes an unrestricted free agent coming off a season in which the Lakers were pushed out of the playoffs by the Phoenix Suns on Thursday night, losing the first-round series 4-2.
