#1 Los Angeles Lakers
While Caruso has only started to steal the headlines over the past few weeks, the guard also turned out for the Lakers on 37 occasions last season. This included seven starts compared to his two this season, and it seems evident that Luke Walton is a big fan of the two-way guard.
Caruso's recent appearances have included breakout games against the Pelicans and Warriors, and the Lakers are sure to be considering handing the former Texas A&M man a full-time contract. It is also worth noting that if the Lakers acquire a second star this summer, the franchise will need to fill out the roster with cheap contracts, and signing Caruso seems like an easy decision.
As a player who went undrafted back in the 2016 draft, Caruso himself seems to be living the dream on a Lakers roster that includes LeBron James, and if the Lakers offer him a full-time contract, it is hard to imagine the 25-year-old turning it down.
