Alex Caruso To Return On Monday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. The 28-year-old is ready to play after missing each of the last two games due to a right ankle sprain. The expectation is that he won't be limited and should resume his normal role in the rotation. His return will mean less playing time for Coby White, Goran Dragic, and Ayo Dosunmu. Fantasy managers probably shouldn't stream those players with Caruso back healthy.
Jan 9, 2023 • 11:37 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Probable For Monday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. The 28-year-old has missed each of the last two games due to a right ankle sprain. It appears Caruso is trending in the right direction, but fantasy managers probably won't get an official answer until closer to tip-off. Coby White, Goran Dragic and Ayo Dosunmu would all see less playing time if Caruso returns on Monday. Otherwise, White is likely to benefit the most if Caruso misses a third straight game.
Jan 9, 2023 • 8:07 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Won't Suit Up On Saturday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. The 28-year-old will miss his second game in a row after suffering a right ankle sprain during Wednesday's contest. Coby White and Ayo Dosunmu are expected to fill the void until Caruso gets back on the court. Both players should see decent playing time and are possible streaming options for this favorable matchup.
Jan 8, 2023 • 12:43 AM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Ruled Out For Friday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He suffered an ankle injury on Wednesday and it appears he's going to miss this game due to the same issue. His absence should mean more playing time for Coby White. He has been providing 15th-round fantasy value over the last two weeks in 9-cat leagues. White is well worth a look with Caruso on the sideline for Friday's contest.
Jan 6, 2023 • 11:53 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Uncertain For Friday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The 28-year-old seemingly can't stay healthy after missing three games due to a shoulder sprain. Caruso returned on Wednesday before spraining his ankle early in the contest. Coby White ended up playing 28 minutes during that contest. He'd be asked to split up the playing time alongside Goran Dragic, assuming Caruso is unable to play on Friday. Between the two players, White is the much safer streaming option if Caruso is out for Friday's game.
Jan 6, 2023 • 12:19 AM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Exits Early On Wednesday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The 28-year-old played three minutes before exiting due to a sprained right ankle. His absence should mean more playing time for Coby White in the rotation. White could be worth streaming in the short term, assuming Caruso misses time from this injury. Fantasy managers will have to check back later for another update on Caruso.
Jan 5, 2023 • 2:03 AM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Returns To Action Friday
Chicago Bulls point guard Alex Caruso (clavicle) has been cleared to suit up for Friday's game against Detroit, stemming his absence due to a clavicle sprain at three contests. With Coby White (knee) also cleared to take the floor, Chicago will have its full allotment of backcourt options (barring Lonzo Ball) against a short-handed Pistons squad. While Caruso has started each of his last nine appearances, he has yet to score in double digits in any of those outings, capping his fantasy intrigue in all markets.
Dec 30, 2022 • 11:59 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Clears Concussion Protocol, Still Out Wednesday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (concussion/shoulder) will not play Wednesday against the Milwaukee Bucks. Caruso will miss his third straight game despite clearing the concussion protocol as he also deals with a shoulder sprain. Ayo Dosunmu figures to continue starting while Coby White sees a good chunk of minutes off the bench. Dosunmu has not lead up to expectations this year, but remains a decent source of assists and steals while in a starting role.
Dec 28, 2022 • 11:39 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Won't Return To Matchup Against Atlanta
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (shoulder) won't return to Wednesday's matchup against Atlanta. The 28-year-old was entering this contest on the injury report for another ailment, a right elbow sprain, so it's possible he'll miss some time moving ahead. He'd finish with five points and a steal in 10 minutes of work, so he didn't really get anything going for fantasy managers. In the meantime, Ayo Dosunmu and Coby White should absorb most of the minutes resulting from Caruso's premature departure.
Dec 22, 2022 • 2:18 AM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Picks Up Questionable Tag For Wednesday
Chicago Bulls point guard Alex Caruso (elbow) has been listed as questionable to play in Wednesday's game vs. Atlanta due to a sprained right elbow. Caruso has started eight of Chicago's last nine contests but has yet to score in double figures in any of those outings, topping five field-goal attempts just once. An absence from Caruso would pave the way for Ayo Dosunmu and Coby White to garner added backcourt minutes and Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan to take on expanded ballhandling duties. While Caruso has been a key contributor for the Bulls, he remains on the periphery of fantasy relevance at just 5.3 PPG.
Dec 21, 2022 • 9:56 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Available Against The Knicks
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (back) is available for Wednesday's meeting with the Knicks. The 28-year-old played only six minutes in Sunday's game against the Mavericks and didn't suit up on Monday in Atlanta. Caruso has averaged only 5.2 points and 3.8 assists in 25.3 minutes in 2022-23. However, he's also averaged 1.5 steals, so category managers in need could benefit from his skills on the defensive end.
Dec 14, 2022 • 11:48 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Probable On Wednesday Night
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (back) is listed as probable for Wednesday's meeting with the New York Knicks. Caruso exited Sunday's game against Dallas after only six minutes of work while missing Monday's contest in Atlanta. That said, the 28-year-old has averaged only 5.2 points and 3.8 assists in 25.3 minutes this season, so he has offered little to fantasy managers. However, considering he has averaged 1.5 steals, he should at least offer something for category participants, assuming he definitely suits up.
Dec 14, 2022 • 4:26 AM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Exits With A Back Problem
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso played for only six minutes in Saturday's blowout win over Dallas, exiting with a lower back contusion, and head coach Billy Donovan has ruled him out for Sunday's meeting with Atlanta. Caruso was making his fourth consecutive start Saturday, but he will now have to sit out at least one game. With him missing, Ayo Dosunmu should be heading back to the starting unit. The 22-year-old had a nice 17-point night against the Mavericks, adding four rebounds, a pair of assists and one steal. He's not done too great as a starter this season, so Dosunmu is not really somebody fantasy managers should rush to grab.
Dec 11, 2022 • 12:39 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Available On Wednesday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. He continues to appear on the injury report with a right ankle sprain, but hasn't missed any time because of it. That being said, it sounds like Caruso will tough it out and play his normal role in the starting five on Wednesday. Ayo Dosunmu and Goran Dragic will continue with their normal roles off the bench with Caruso healthy on Wednesday.
Dec 8, 2022 • 12:40 AM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Once Again Questionable Wednesday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is regarded as questionable for Wednesday's tilt against Washington. He continues to be on the injury report with a right ankle sprain, but Caruso hasn't yet sat out any action so far this season. The 28-year-old moved to the starting unit recently, but he has struggled to have an impact and even ended up with zero points in 30 minutes in Sunday's 110-101 loss to the Kings. Ayo Dosunmu looks to rejoin the starters if Caruso sits out Wednesday, and Goran Dragic and Coby White will have an opportunity to log extra minutes.
Dec 7, 2022 • 8:08 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Questionable For Sunday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He was listed as probable on Saturday, but it appears things have changed. His absence would likely result in Ayo Dosunmu moving into the starting five. A move to the starting unit would boost Dosunmu's value, but it's still not overly great. Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan are the ones taking the most shots in Chicago right now.
Dec 4, 2022 • 8:02 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Probable On Friday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is considered probable for Friday's matchup against Golden State. He continues to pop up on the injury report with a right ankle sprain, but it's not kept him out of the lineup yet and it appears like that won't be the case on Friday either. Caruso is a man of many crafts and he averages over 25 minutes a night, which helps him to pick up all kinds of stats. He typically doesn't score a lot, with his season average standing at 5.8 points per game, but Caruso has improved his offensive production lately and he even notched a season-high 14 points in his last outing. Bench scoring will be vital against a side like the Warriors, who can run up the score in a hurry.
Dec 3, 2022 • 1:15 AM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso, Ayo Dosunmu To Play Wednesday
Chicago Bulls guards Alex Caruso (ankle) and Ayo Dosunmu (knee) will suit up for Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Caruso has been battling through foot and ankle issues recently, but will play through the pain here. The expectation is that he'll have his normal role in the rotation. He'll be a decent streaming option in deep leagues. Dosunmu's return should mean that Coby White returns to his normal role and won't see a boost anymore.
Dec 1, 2022 • 2:01 AM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Available On Monday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (hamstring) will be available for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. He was listed as probable, so it sounds like this was only a minor hamstring issue. The expectation is that Caruso won't be limited for this game. However, he's more of a deep league asset than anything else at the moment. Although, Caruso could carve out a bigger role for himself down the road.
Oct 24, 2022 • 10:41 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Available Against Miami
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (calf) will play during the season-opener against Miami. He was trending in that direction all along, so his availability isn't a surprise. With Zach LaVine (knee) out, Caruso will likely enter the starting lineup, where he averaged 5.7 points, 4.4 assists, and 1.2 steals in 18 starts in 2021-22. He's a risky fantasy option, although his ability on the defensive end may come in handy for category participants.
Oct 19, 2022 • 10:20 PM | RotoBallerAlex Caruso Expected To Play Against Miami
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (calf) is expected to play on Wednesday versus the Miami Heat. Lonzo Ball (knee) is already out, and Zach LaVine (knee) is questionable, so Caruso may see even more minutes than anticipated. The 28-year-old was productive last season despite playing in only 41 games due to injury, averaging 7.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.7 steals. His shooting numbers aren't the best, and he's also not the most proficient scorer. Yet, for the category managers looking for steals, Caruso is your guy.
