It was another quiet night for LeBron James, who sat on the sidelines as the Lakers slumped to another loss. On Monday, the in-form Chicago Bulls visited the Staples Center, and spoiled the party. In a resounding 121-103 victory, DeMar DeRozan and Lonzo Ball starred for the Bulls. In addition, former Laker Alex Caruso also shone right through, in spite of failing to gather a single point.

27-year-old Alex Caruso bloomed into a guard-forward under Frank Vogel’s guidance. After four years with the franchise, he shifted setups, and joined the red devils. Yet, he has always been grateful for his time at LA. Averaging around 6.4 points last year, he was a valuable asset for James and co. It was a huge learning curve for him under some some of the world’s best, and his efforts are paying dividends now. During the game however, a familiar face was seen; not on court, but in the stands.

As the image of ‘Cloneruso’ stormed the internet, fans went berserk. LeBron, who embraced Alex after the match, perhaps didn’t notice the doppelganger sitting in the crowd. Meanwhile, one fan commented on Twitter, “Alex Ca2so.” Another fan hilariously claimed, “What do you mean clone that’s the actual Caruso silly.” Was it really?
