Caruso fractured his right wrist and required a truce of at least 6-8 weeks, which also made Grayson Allen, who had committed malicious fouls on him, the target of verbal criticism. On January 24, Beijing time, the Bucks guard officially responded to the injury of Caruso on his Discord social media, insisting that he did not do it on purpose, and also explained why he smiled on the sidelines.
During the Bulls-Bucks game, Caruso suffered a malicious foul on Grayson Allen on the layup and suffered a fractured right wrist when Aaron received a second-degree malicious foul and was expelled.
"Unfortunately, it turned out that way," Allen explained on social media, "I took off and tried to cover the ball with my left hand, and I turned around and extended my right hand to grab the ball, not to hit him." He fell badly, but I was glad he was okay (referring to caruso coming back to the game). If that turn could be repeated, I knew my movements would have made him fall like that, and I wouldn't have done that. ”
Aaron also retweeted a social media outlet by Richard Jefferson about smiling after a second-degree malicious foul. Jefferson's assessment was that "it would be nice for him to laugh out of it." ”
In response to his "evil smile" at that time, Aaron also made his explanation. "I was standing near half-time to see if he had gotten up and if he was okay. Then I went back to our bench, and that's when a teammate made a joke and I laughed," Aaron wrote, "and I wasn't laughing at that foul." ”
However, Aaron explained that whether he believed it or not was a matter for the fans. After all, when a player's malicious foul can be cut into a few minutes of highlights, everyone always thinks of his black history. At present, the league has begun to investigate Allen's malicious foul, and the possibility of additional bans is not ruled out.
