Thunder's Alex Caruso: Tallies three steals in loss
Alex Caruso chipped in two points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and three steals over 24 minutes during Tuesday's 97-81 loss to the Bucks.Caruso failed to produce anything else of note besides the steals. When healthy, Caruso has typically played a limited role off the bench for the Oklahoma City Thunder, highlighting the depth of their roster. His on-court impact is generally far greater than the impact he has on the scoresheet, as he's achieved double digits in points just once over his last five outings.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Posts well-rounded line in return
Alex Caruso (hip) tallied eight points (3-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block across 17 minutes in Thursday's 129-92 win over the Raptors.In his return from a five-game absence due to a right hip strain, Caruso brought his usual contributions in the defensive categories, but he also complemented the pair of defensive counters with some quality perimeter shooting. In his 13 appearances with the Oklahoma City Thunder prior to his recent absence, Caruso had been converting at a lowly 20.5 percent rate from distance. If he can continue to bring that rate closer to the 40.8 percent he shot from three-point land as a member of the Bulls in 2023-24, Caruso could start to earn more minutes in a crowded Thunder wing rotation.
