Alex Caruso Says LeBron Is One Of The Most Elite Passers In The Game

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Alex Caruso signed a two-year deal with the team this offseason. He had a Q&A interview with Bryan Kalbrosky of the HoopsHype, and talked about a lot of topics, including LeBron James, his catch-and-shoot game and the Lakers.

“With LeBron, it’s pretty easy. He’s such a good passer. That’s probably his most underrated skill that people forget about because he’s such a dominant, physical presence and he can score the ball so well. He’s really one of the most elite passers in the game. I know any time he’s got the ball, the ball might be thrown to me so I have to be ready.

“I think it’s a mix of putting the time in the gym and just being confident and knowing when I will be getting shots. I have to always be ready to shoot. The goal for this year is just to build off the success I had. There was nothing special about last year that I did. There was no crazy secret. I just got shots up in the gym and whenever the game came, I got in the right spots and was ready to shoot.

“With the addition of guys like AD, who is going to draw more attention, I need to be confident and step it up and shoot it in rhythm. That’s really the key to having success with it.”

In the 2018-19 season, the 25-year-old averaged 9.2 points, 2.7 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game.

Caruso likes to talk about his role on the team. Playing with LeBron is great, and Caruso said that the king makes everything so well. He and LeBron read one another really well, and there’s a lot of trust, too.

The point guard said that LeBron makes the game easy for him, adding that he gets a lot of attention. If you ask Caruso, he will say that LeBron is one of the greatest players of all time. We know a lot of people who’d agree with Caruso. I mean, it’s more than obvious that LeBron is the GOAT.

The Lakers had a terrible season, but they are ready for some serious action this season.
