Thanks to a heroic performance from Alex Caruso on both ends of the floor, the Bulls turned what appeared to be a blow-out loss into a nail biter against the Suns on Wednesday.

It was a quick conversation between Alex Caruso and Bulls assistant coach Mo Cheeks.

Just before the Suns and Bulls were preparing to start the overtime on Wednesday, Caruso leaned into Cheeks and said, “If you would have told young Alex Caruso that you had to guard Kevin Durant one-on-one for game, he would have been pretty excited,’’ Caruso recalled.
