Lakers News: Alex Caruso Emphasizes Team Approach To Replacing Avery Bradley

Alex Caruso has more than outperformed the two-year, $5.5 million contract he signed with the Los Angeles Lakers this past offseason. A strong close to the 2018-19 season gave a glimpse at what Caruso could do with extended minutes and he has not disappointed.

Under head coach Frank Vogel, Caruso became an integral part of the bench unit, often providing jolts of energy whenever the Lakers needed it. However, he will likely be asked to do even more after Avery Bradley notified the team he would not be joining them in the season’s restart.

Like others throughout the organization, Caruso supported Bradley opting out because of health concerns with his son.
