Alex Caruso Fantasy Stats

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Ajay Mitchell (abdomen) will miss Sunday's game against Toronto, while guard/forward Alex Caruso (adductor) also remains sidelined. Mitchell's second straight absence and Caruso's continued inactivity thin Oklahoma City's perimeter rotation and push minutes to secondary options. Cason Wallace has offered the safest fantasy floor, posting 10 points, five rebounds, and two steals in 30 minutes in his last start. Luguentz Dort continues to log heavy minutes but brings volatile scoring, while Isaiah Joe profiles as a streaky deep-league streamer tied to shooting efficiency.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Alex Caruso (adductor) will sit out Friday against Indiana, extending his absence as the Thunder continue to manage his workload. With Caruso and Ajay Mitchell (abdomen) sidelined and Aaron Wiggins (groin) carrying a questionable tag, Oklahoma City's wing rotation thins again. That creates a short-term opportunity for Isaiah Joe, who logged five points in 25 minutes last game and offers situational three-point streaming value in deeper leagues. Caruso remains a defensive-category specialist when active, but his limited scoring profile keeps his fantasy ceiling capped.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Alex Caruso (back) is available to play Friday night against the Memphis Grizzlies. Caruso has missed the last two games with a back injury but is set to return Friday. The veteran has averaged 6,9 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 2.1 assists in 18 minutes, all down from his 2024-25 averages. With key starters Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Chet Holmgren (shin) ruled out for Friday's contest against the Grizzlies, Caruso may have a larger role despite playing his first game this week. While he could play more minutes than usual, Caruso remains on the low end of fantasy relevance at this point.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Alex Caruso (back) won't take the court on Wednesday night against the Utah Jazz. The defensive specialist is dealing with a lower back issue and is missing a second consecutive game. Caruso's absence opens up additional playing time for Aaron Wiggins, Cason Wallace, and Isaiah Joe. Of the trio, Wiggins appears to be the safest bet to deliver fantasy value, as he had a starting role in Monday's victory over the Charlotte Hornets, filling in for Isaiah Hartenstein (calf).

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Alex Caruso (finger) is set to suit up Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs. Caruso was sidelined on Monday against Memphis due to a sprained right middle finger. The 31-year-old has averaged only 5.8 points, 3.1 boards, and 1.8 steals throughout the 2025 campaign, so he isn't an everyday fantasy option going into this evening's contest. However, he could spend more minutes on the floor than usual, as Ajay Mitchell (concussion) was diagnosed with a concussion and will have to sit out on Tuesday.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Alex Caruso (finger) won't suit up for Monday's meeting with Memphis. The 31-year-old has been on and off the injury report all season. This time, he'll be sidelined by a sprained right middle finger. He's averaged only 5.8 points, 3.1 boards, and 1.8 steals throughout the 2025 campaign, so he hasn't been an every day fantasy option. With Isaiah Hartenstein (calf), Jaylin Williams (heel), and Chet Holmgren (illness) also out, Caruso could have gotten more involved. However, it appears Kenrich Williams will see extra work, even more so if Aaron Wiggins (adductor) doesn't play.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Alex Caruso (quadriceps) has been removed from the injury report and will end a four-game absence on Wednesday against the Phoenix Suns. The veteran has missed time because of a right quadriceps contusion. Caruso has exclusively come off the bench this season, averaging 5.7 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 1.6 steals in 18.8 minutes. Despite his limited workload, only nine players in the league have averaged more steals than Caruso, who did a bit of everything in this season's first clash against the Suns. In a 123-119 win on Nov. 28, Caruso had four points, seven rebounds, three assists, one block, and two steals.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Alex Caruso (quadriceps) won't play in Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The 31-year-old is quite familiar with the NBA's injury report. However, his absence is more of a bigger issue, considering OKC will also be without Isaiah Hartenstein (calf), who will sidelined for at least 10-14 days. Without Caruso in the equation, Ajay Mitchell could see considerably more minutes than the five he received in Friday's NBA Cup victory over the Phoenix Suns. While Mitchell isn't the safest fantasy option when not in the starting lineup, he still has a higher ceiling for those in need of a last-minute, high-upside streaming option on Sunday night.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Alex Caruso (hand) has been ruled out for the rest of Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets, Andrew Schlecht of The Athletic reports. Coming off the bench, Caruso logged only 1:42 of action before hurting his right hand. His exit from the game allows Isaiah Joe and Ajay Mitchell to take on more shifts in the rotation. The team has labeled Caruso's injury as "right hand soreness," which doesn't sound too serious. However, he could still miss additional time because of it. The Thunder's next game is scheduled for Monday night against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Alex Caruso (concussion) will rejoin the lineup on Tuesday against the Sacramento Kings. He has missed three games while dealing with a concussion. With Jalen Williams (wrist) and Isaiah Joe (knee) still out, Caruso should be heavily involved in the action on Tuesday. Chet Holmgren (back) also won't play against the Kings, which opens up even more minutes in the rotation for players like Caruso, Aaron Wiggins, and Ajay Mitchell.
