The point guard has made full use of his attributes to shoot from the deep and layup the ball for his counterparts to see him emerge an instrumental component of his side’s gameplan.
The emergence of Rondo ever since his recovery from a lengthy injury has not deterred Alex Caruso in the slightest. His nonchalant ability to keep shooting the triples has seen him be a solid part of his side’s shooting rotations with him pulling off 11 points in game 5.
