"I knew coming into this offseason that I was probably going to have a chance at one of those [two-way contracts], so I did my research and my homework to figure out what it was like,” Caruso said. “My agent did a good job of relaying the message to me of what they wanted to set up and stuff like that. I feel comfortable with it. I'm excited.”

“I got a call from my agent a couple days after that big game I had telling me 'hey, they want to do it this week,'“ Caruso said following the Lakers’ win over the Cavaliers Thursday. “I was like 'awesome. let's get it done.' So we went up to the hotel lobby this morning and got it signed."

"Once I get on the court, by the way I play, hopefully they can tell that I'm out there just trying to win. I'm not out there thinking about getting so-and-so money on some contract,” Caruso said. “I'm just trying to win."
