Alex Caruso totaled four points (2-5 FG, 0-2 3PT), three rebounds, five assists, two steals, and two blocks in the Thunders’ 104-97 win over the Heat.
Fantasy Impact:
Caruso is the player we all root for, and his move to the Thunder only heightened expectations for what he could bring. While he hasn’t quite developed into the high-end utility fantasy asset some hoped for, he remains a key contributor to the Thunder’s competitiveness this season. His 2.0 steals and blocks against the heat are a reminder of the gritty, impactful game we’ve come to love. As he settles into his role on this team, there’s reason to believe he’ll regain and even surpass the form he’s showcased in past seasons. While not a must-add in standard leagues, he should be on the radar for deeper formats, especially for managers seeking category boosts in steals, blocks, or efficiency. In DFS, he’s a solid option depending on the slate and value plays.
