Caruso, who switched from the Lakers to the Bulls this season, originally sat in the main rotation of the team, but in the game with the Bucks on January 22 this year, Caruso was maliciously fouled by the opposing player Glenson Allen, resulting in a wrist fracture, and After undergoing surgery, Caruso missed 7 weeks of games in succession, until march 13 with the Cavaliers. According to the recent Bulls coach Donovan revealed that Caruso's wrist before surgery is still a little sore, which inevitably makes people start to hate Caruso's injured "culprit" Glenson Allen.
In a recent podcast with former NBA player Redick, Caruso revealed that after being fouled by Aaron and causing his wrist fracture, he did not receive any text messages or computer greetings from Arun to apologize, and the latter did not seem to feel sorry for the injury he suffered. And on March 5, the Bulls again faced the Bucks in the game, although Caruso had not yet returned at the time, but teammate Derrick Jones Jr. avenged it, in the final stage of that game, when Allen broke through the bottom line, he was intercepted by Jones, directly knocked him to the ground in the air, and in an interview after the game, Jones also bluntly said that this foul was not a malicious foul, indicating that he was going to "fight hard" with Jones.
And with Caruso's recent comeback, he has also downplayed Aaron's malicious foul against him, making it clear that he is not angry about that foul, but the latter does not have any apology and concern, which does make Caruso still have some diaphragm in his heart. At present, the Bulls are temporarily ranked fifth in the East with a record of 41 wins and 29 losses, and with 12 games left in the regular season, the Bulls will also play the Bucks twice, and then Caruso and Glenson Allen will not be surprised, and will usher in a head-to-head confrontation, and I hope that this time Aaron can apologize to Caruso in person, if he still has nothing to do with himself and feels that he is right, then Caruso can really "fight violence with violence".
If Aaron continues to make malicious moves to himself beyond the basketball itself, Caruso should not be merciful, just like Jones did to Arun's malicious foul on Arun, "People don't offend me, I don't commit crimes, if people offend me, I will be a criminal" For a good-tempered player like Caruso, if he really does not teach Aaron a lesson, the latter will only be more rampant in the next game, and there will be more innocent victims like Caruso.
In the 32 games played for the Bulls this season, Caruso averaged 8.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.9 steals in 27.6 minutes of playing time, and the three shooting rates were 42.1%, 34.3% and 81% respectively. Caruso's defensive efficiency can come to 103.2 of the 23rd in the league, and aside from Patrick Williams, who has played less than 10 games, he is the player with the best defensive efficiency of this Bulls team.
With the Bulls likely to lock in a playoff ticket, Caruso will also usher in the third playoff journey of his career, and hope that he can maintain a healthy state and strive to help the Bulls go further this year, after all, his defensive and organizational skills are really too important for this dark horse team.
