Thunder's Alex Caruso: Adds 13 points in win
Caruso totaled 13 points (4-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 24 minutes during Tuesday's 112-105 victory over the Nuggets in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Caruso notched his third double-digit scoring effort of the series and fifth of the postseason in Tuesday's Game 5 win. The defensive ace went without a steal or block for the second straight game, but on the flip side, he knocked down multiple three-pointers for the third game in a row. Caruso continuing to cash in on open jumpers would be huge for the Thunder in their quest for a title.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Productive off bench
Caruso ended with 10 points (3-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 28 minutes during Sunday's 92-87 win over the Nuggets in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Caruso's production has been all over the place in this series. Still, the second unit for the Thunder was pivotal in this win with Caruso, Aaron Wiggins and Cason Wallace combining to score 32 points. Through four games of this series, Caruso holds averages of 9.8 points, 2.5 assists, 1.8 rebounds, 0.8 blocks, 1.5 steals and 2.3 three-pointers in just 21.8 minutes.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Elite two-way performance
Caruso recorded 20 points (7-12 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, six assists, two blocks and five steals across 26 minutes during Monday's 121-119 loss to the Nuggets in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Caruso was fantastic despite the loss, providing elite production on both ends of the floor. He was one of only two Thunder players to score at least 20 points, while the seven combined steals and blocks marked a season high. Although he continues to come off the bench, Caruso's impact cannot be overstated, and he will likely play a key role for Oklahoma City as the series progresses.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Pivotal performance in Game 3 win
Caruso amassed 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and four steals across 23 minutes during Thursday's 114-108 win over Memphis in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Caruso turned in a vintage performance, tallying five defensive stats as the Thunder stole the victory against the Grizzlies. Despite an injury-plagued season, this is exactly why Oklahoma City acquired Caruso in the first place. His ability to play lock-down defense takes some of the pressure off Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams. The two teams will face off again Saturday, where the Thunder will look to wrap up the series.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Makes impact off bench
Caruso totaled 13 points (5-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals over 22 minutes during Tuesday's 118-99 win over the Grizzlies in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Caruso wasn't utilized much in Game 1 due to the lopsided score, playing 12 minutes without a single point. Game 2 was a little closer, however, and was more indicative of what Caruso's role could look like going forward.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Will play Sunday vs. Memphis
Caruso (ankle) is not on the injury report ahead of Game 1 against the Grizzlies on Sunday.
Caruso didn't play in the Thunder's last two games of the regular season due to an ankle injury, but he's been cleared to play Sunday. The eight-year guard out of Texas A&M was limited to 54 games (three starts) due to various injuries. Still, he finished his first regular season with Oklahoma City averaging 7.1 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.6 steals over 19.3 minutes per contest.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Expected to play Sunday
Caruso (ankle) is expected to play in the postseason.
Caruso missed the final two regular-season games, but his absences were likely precautionary, as the Thunder already had the No. 1 seed locked up. The defensive-minded guard averaged 7.1 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.6 steals in 19.3 minutes across 54 appearances (three starts) during his first regular season in Oklahoma City.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Not playing Sunday
Caruso (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
Just like it happened Friday against the Jazz, the Thunder will rest most of their regular rotation members for this regular-season finale after securing the top seed in the Western Conference and the best record in the league. Caruso doesn't carry a lot of fantasy upside due to his defensive-minded role off the bench, but he's key to what the Thunder do on defense, so the focus should be to get him as healthy as possible for the start of the postseason on April 19.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Sitting Friday
Caruso won't play in Friday's game against the Jazz due to a right ankle sprain.
Caruso presumably picked up a minor ankle injury during his last appearance Wednesday against the Suns, though it would also appear as though the club is trying to rest the rotation players leading up to the postseason. Adam Flagler and Ajay Mitchell should see chances to step up with Caruso, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Cason Wallace all ruled out.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Starting vs. Phoenix
Caruso is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Suns, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
The Thunder will be without Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (lower leg), so Caruso will take his place in the lineup. Even if he's not expected to replicate his production, Caruso should experience a bump in his numbers. He's scored 14 points in his previous two starts this season, whereas his season average is only 6.8 per contest.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Removed from injury report
Caruso (ankle) has been cleared to play in Friday's game against the Rockets.
After missing Wednesday's game against the Pistons due to an ankle issue, Caruso will be back on the floor Friday in Houston. The veteran guard is averaging 6.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.6 steals per game while shooting 44.7 percent from the floor and 35.4 percent from beyond the arc.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Ruled out against Detroit
Caruso (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pistons.
Caruso is one of the notable players for the Thunder who will be sidelined for Wednesday's game against Detroit. Oklahoma City will likely lean on Isaiah Joe, Cason Wallace and Jalen Williams to help shoulder the load.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Iffy for Wednesday
Caruso is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pistons due to left ankle soreness.
Caruso is a late addition to the injury report, which is always a concern. The oft-injured wing missed only three games in March, but his playing time has dropped recently, averaging only 14.7 minutes a night over his last three games.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Good to go Saturday
Caruso (back) will play Saturday against the Pacers.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Iffy for Saturday
Caruso (back) has been listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Pacers.
Caruso played only 10 minutes in Thursday's game against the Grizzlies because of back soreness. However, there's a chance the veteran guard won't miss more time due to the back issue given that he is listed as questionable for Saturday's matchup against Indiana.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Exits with back injury
Caruso won't return to Thursday's game against the Grizzlies due to low back soreness, Steve McGehee of News 9 Oklahoma City reports.
It's unclear when Caruso suffered the injury, but he'll sit for the remainder of the fourth quarter. He produced six points (2-5 FG, 2-5 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block over 10 minutes before being ruled out.
