Say we traded BI for Allen, would a secondary move like this be interesting to anyone? Caruso is basically what we’re praying Dyson turns into. If we trade Nance for him with the two picks, we could try to use the full MLE for a big in FA. Could start next to Cj, come off the bench next to Jose. Fits will next to Zion and would be cheaper to keep here than Murray.

Hard no to giving up any first for Caruso. I don’t think he is a needle mover and I would be opposed to even trading Dyson for him. Defiantly not the two first with Larry.
Why trade Dyson for Caruso when you can grow Dyson to be Caruso(or even more cuz Dyson is even taller)? I know Dyson still can’t shoot 3s but Caruso were shooting 30% of 3pt when he was 23 but Dyson is still 21? AC is 30 now.
I wouldn’t be opposed to it only if we decided to go all in on making trades/signings to make the roster better. If not, just expand Dyson’s role more.
terrible trade for any of this for potential, cost and possible wins..just terrible
A FRP and a good young player for a 30 year old that’s not even a fringe star? Or multiple FRPs for said non fringe star at 30?
I like Caruso but that’s nonsensical. Only near contender teams that view him as the last piece would do that
Dyson is literally Caruso. I’d rather just keep the younger player with higher upside
The issue for me is he’s on the last year of his deal, and he’s on the ikr see side. He fits but I’d rather not give up a first and a young Dyson for him, I like him as a vet with experience and his impact for 1-3 years but no long term extension in place makes this just so much more unappealing to me.
Inject this into every pelicans fans veins immediately if you’re smart. Caruso is a point guard at heart. He can secondary ball handle, plays with a pass first mind set, would instantly create the best defensive backcourt in the NBA and knows his role!!
AC-Herb-Trigga-Z-Allen
CJ instant offense off the bench and can close if he’s hot.
That’s a Zion squad right there 👀💯
As a fan of another team who also loves Caruso, this is too rich. Better to bet on Dyson’s development
Would be crazy to not rollover that Laker 1st to next year
