What do you think of where we ranked Alex Caruso?
Analysis
By Justin VerrierPreseason question: Caruso is more folk hero than man at this point. We can concern-troll about his injury history or his declining 3-point shot (sub–30 percent last regular season!), but when the playoffs roll around, he’s unimpeachable. He flipped the switch again last year, nailing nearly half of his 3s and even dropping 31 points against the Spurs to open the Western finals. So while Caruso’s lack of availability might be more of a concern after OKC jettisoned three capable rotation players in order to duck the second apron, there’s little doubt that the 10th-year guard will be there when it matters most.
