'You think about what could've been,' Alex Caruso misses his time as a Laker

For the Lakers Nation one of the biggest mistakes made by the front office led by GM Rob Pelinka was to let walked for free the guard Alex Caruso instead of re-signing him, since then, rumors haven't stopped of LA wanting to bring him back.

Alex Caruso recently admitted he sometimes wonders about what would have happened had he not left the Los Angeles Lakers as a free agent to sign with the Chicago Bulls. When asked if he ever thinks about what could've been if things had turned different, Caruso revealed:

“Yeah, definitely,” Caruso told FOX Sports. “Just because of how well I played with them when I was here. I know how I supported them. And I’ve gotten better. I was expecting myself to get better. It’s actually what had to move me on. I kept getting better and eventually, I was at a point where I couldn’t stay here."

“I definitely have always thought about it because those guys [LeBron James and Anthony Davis] are my brothers. We’ve been through a lot together. Always good seeing them. Now and then you think about what could’ve been.”

Alex Caruso has been rumored to return to LA sometime

With the NBA trade deadline approaching early next month, there has been some thought that Caruso could be on the move again, with a reunion with the Lakers not out of the question. However, the Bulls reportedly are not interested in discussing a deal for Caruso unless it draws a significant return. Caruso helped the Lakers win the 2020 NBA title but left following the 2020-21 NBA season. He signed a four-year, $37 million contract with the Bulls that he said was a better offer than what the Lakers had brought to the table.
