Caruso posted zero points (0-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt), four steals, two rebounds and two assists across 22 minutes during Wednesday's 105-93 victory over the Spurs.
Though the Thunder have used three different starting lineups in their first four games, Caruso has yet to get a look on the top unit, with Cason Wallace (two starts), Isaiah Joe (one) and Aaron Wiggins (one) all getting looks at the open spot on the wing next to Luguentz Dort. Caruso hasn't been able to pick up extensive playing time off the bench, as he's fallen between 19 and 22 minutes in the first four contests. With averages of 2.3 steals and 1.0 blocks through four outings, Caruso has shown that he doesn't need an abundance of playing time to post useful defensive production, but his other numbers will likely remain underwhelming if he continues to see under 25 minutes per game.
