The Chicago Bulls have set a high asking price for Alex Caruso, their coveted guard, as the trade deadline approaches. ESPN’s NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski revealed on The Woj Pod that the Bulls are seeking a deal similar to an “OG Anunoby-type deal” for Caruso, indicating their reluctance to part ways with him easily.
Caruso, known for his defensive prowess, has emerged as a valuable asset for the Bulls despite not being one of their stars like Zach LaVine or DeMar DeRozan.
The 29-year-old guard is currently on a team-friendly contract, with one more year remaining, partially guaranteed, on his four-year, $37 million deal.
In the current season, Caruso has been a consistent contributor for the Bulls, averaging 10 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game in 26.7 minutes of playtime.
With his defensive tenacity and all-around contributions, Caruso has become a key component of the Bulls’ rotation, earning him significant interest from other teams in the league.
