Thunder's Alex Caruso: Season-high 12 points Monday
Caruso ended Monday's 134-128 victory over the Clippers with 12 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one steal across 20 minutes.
Caruso led the bench in scoring while posting a season-high 12 points in the win. The 30-year-old has struggled offensively through 11 regular-season outings, during which he has averaged 4.2 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.7 steals while shooting 30.9 percent from the floor across 19.5 minutes per game. While Caruso shouldn't be expected to provide double-digit scoring on a nightly basis, his defensive abilities have been crucial off the bench for the Thunder, and he'll likely continue to receive significant playing time in a stacked rotation.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Offense still behind defense
Caruso closed with two points (1-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists, two blocks and four steals in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 124-122 loss to the Nuggets.
Caruso could not find his touch in Wednesday's loss and has yet to score more than six points in a game. His 23.7 field-goal percentage is frustrating for fantasy managers, not to mention his 19.9 minutes per game. Still, Caruso is providing 2.0 steals and 0.8 blocks per game. If steals are what you're looking for, he's delivering. Eventually, he'll start shooting more efficiently, and maybe his minutes will increase along with it.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Muted role continues
Caruso recorded three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), five assists and one steal in 21 minutes during Monday's 102-86 win over the Magic.
Caruso's role coming into the season was up in the air, and given what we have seen to this point, it appears as though the Thunder are going to throw him out there for no more than 22 minutes per night. His impact on the defensive end goes without saying, as highlighted by his 2.3 combined steals and blocks per game. With the Thunder sitting atop the Western Conference and looking as though they are once again going to challenge for the title, it is hard to envisage Caruso's role changing anytime soon.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Tallies four steals in win
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.
