Los Angeles Lakers: 4 bold, yet realistic takes for 2019-20 season
Honorable Mention:
By the end of the season, Alex Caruso will be part of the rotation and will be getting solid minutes every game.
Okay, complete honesty, I only threw this in for a couple of reasons.
Who doesn’t love Alex Caruso? Not to mention, you can actually buy his jersey now…so get on that!

The Bald Mamba might be the greatest nickname of all active players in the NBA.
Caruso has not only the fans behind him, but he has the players and staff behind him as well. As you saw in that video, players love seeing him on the court. He is so athletic and fun to watch and he looks nothing like a player that would be athletic and fun to watch.
Well, he looks a little bit more like that type of player. I’m sure you all saw the photoshopped image of him that appeared last week. That was so misleading, Caruso actually got randomly drug tested after it surfaced. Way to go, social media!
Besides the point, Alex was legitimately one of the best Lakers through the final eight games. Albeit, there wasn’t much competition for him as the Lakers had practically shut everyone down but it is still worth noting.
To summarize, if Caruso is traded, we riot!!
