Despite all the signings the Los Angeles Lakers made this offseason, one of the biggest losses the team suffered was guard Alex Caruso. The fan favorite agreed to a deal with the Chicago Bulls and following the news, there was a lot of conversation about whether the Lakers should have re-signed him.
The amount that Caruso signed for wasn’t an exorbitant amount and there even reports that Caruso would have signed for less guaranteed money to stay in L.A. There were also rumors that the Lakers could do a sign-and-trade to send him to Chicago, and apparently there were other possibilities that also could have seen the franchise send out another piece.
