Los Angeles Lakers went through a massive roster overhaul during the off-season in a bid to challenge for the 2021-22 championship. However, they have been struggling to perform with their new signings and are heavily dependent on LeBron James. But some of the off-season departures have been performing well since leaving the Lakers, with Alex Caruso being one of them.

Alex Caruso had signed a two-year contract with the Lakers in 2019, which ended last summer. He became an unrestricted free agent after the 2020-21 season and signed with the Bulls in August 2021.

The Bulls signed him to a four-year deal. Caruso played a crucial role for the Lakers during their championship-winning season and quickly became a fan favorite. Caruso later revealed that the Lakers offered him a startling low contract of fewer than 2 years in free agency. It’s past now and Caruso has started making noise as a Bull. He recently made an insane LeBron-Esque chase-down block in the Cavs vs Heat fixture.

It was an insane block by Caruso in the 4th quarter of the game. The Bulls managed to win the game 117-104 at home with Caruso scoring 9 points off the bench. Lakers fans couldn’t stop themselves from reacting to Caruso’s block vs. the Cavs.

Caruso had a lot of impact on the Lakers team and fans still miss him. Following are some of the best reactions to Caruso’s chase-down block:

Caruso has featured in 27 games for the Bulls this season and averaged 8.4 points per game so far. He has also recorded 3.9 assists and 3.7 rebounds in as many games for the Bulls. He has settled in well in Chicago and it’s clearly visible from his performances this season.

The Lakers, however, are 22-23 this season far and sit 8th in the western conference table. They are currently on .489 so far and need their non-LeBron starters to step up in the coming games.
