“I’ll Miss Throwing LeBron James Lobs, Hopefully Me And Zach Lavine Can Get On That Page”: Alex Caruso Can’t Temper His Excitement Of Playing With Bulls Star Despite Leaving Lakers
Alex Caruso is going to have to go from throwing alley oops to LeBron James to Zach Lavine, but he couldn’t be more excited to join the Bulls.
The Bulls had themselves quite an offseason, virtually changing their entire roster. The Bulls made a number of deals which included picking up Lonzo Ball, DeMar DeRozan, and of course, Alex Caruso.
The Bulls brought in the former Lakers guard/forward for his defensive versatility and playmaking ability. That playmaking was definitely on display in Los Angeles when Caruso and LeBron would run the Lakeshow leading to some exciting highlights.

Chicago has their own high flier in Zach Lavine, also their best player and the franchise cornerstone for now, and Caruso is hoping he’ll develop a good relationship with him too.
