Lakers News: Alex Caruso Has Been ‘Assured An Opportunity To Get Minutes,’ Excited About 82-Game Season Test

Alex Caruso has spent the last two seasons on one of the Los Angeles Lakers two-way deals and during this time, he played a total of 62 games but wildly impressed people in several of those games.

The pinnacle of that was a 32-point, 10-rebound, five-assist, and two-steal outing in a win against the Los Angeles Clippers near the end of the 2018-19 NBA season.

It was performances like this that likely brought Caruso a two-year, $5.5 million deal to return to the Lakers full time. This means that for the first time in his career, he will have the chance to play an 82-game season.
