Alex Caruso isn’t satisfied with his career-high because he still wants to get better

Alex Caruso is an NBA player. He’s proved that much since he started getting regular playing time with the Los Angeles Lakers last month.

In 14 consecutive appearances for Los Angeles in March, Caruso averaged 9.8 points per game on 47.3 percent shooting from the field, including 48.5 percent shooting from behind the 3-point line. He also produced 3 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.2 steals per game, all while posting a team-high box plus-minus of +4.1 while averaging 23 minutes per game.

On Sunday against the New Orleans Pelicans, Caruso put up career-high 23 points, 6 assists, 3 rebounds and 4 steals.
