Caruso (adductor) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game in San Antonio.
EDGE Analysis
Caruso will take a maintenance day on the second leg of a back-to-back set, but he should be back in action for Saturday's game against the Rockets. With Caruso, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdominal), Luguentz Dort (patellofemoraljoint) and Ajay Mitchell (abdominal) all unavailable for Wednesday's game, the Thunder's backcourt will be quite thin. Expect big minutes for Aaron Wiggins, Cason Wallace and Isaiah Joe on Wednesday evening.

Caruso (adductor) registered six points (2-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists and one steal in 19 minutes Tuesday in the Thunder's 128-92 win over the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
After he had missed the Thunder's previous six games due to a right adductor strain, Caruso saw a relatively standard allotment of minutes off the bench in his return. The defensive-minded Caruso came up empty from downtown but was able to deliver one steal for fantasy managers who streamed him in for help in that category. Tuesday's contest was the first of a back-to-back set for the Thunder, so Caruso could be a candidate to rest Wednesday in San Antonio if the Oklahoma City medical staff wants to ease him back from the adductor injury.

Caruso (hip) is available for Tuesday's game against the Magic, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Caruso was initially added to the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game as doubtful due to a right adductor strain, but he was later upgraded to questionable and has now been given the green light to run the floor. This will mark his first game action since Jan. 19, so the Thunder may keep a close eye on his workload.

Caruso is questionable for Tuesday's game against Orlando with a right adductor strain, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Thunder have upgraded Caruso from doubtful to questionable, signaling that the swingman has a real chance to end a seven-game absence. Caruso's return would slightly cut into the minutes of Aaron Wiggins and Luguentz Dort on the wing.

Caruso is doubtful for Tuesday's game against Orlando with a right adductor strain, per Rylan Stiles of SI.com.
EDGE Analysis
The doubtful designation is actually an upgrade for Caruso, which at least implies he's inching closer to returning at some point in the near future. With the swingman likely to miss a seventh consecutive contest, Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins and Cason Wallace are each worthy of streaming consideration for Tuesday.

Caruso (adductor) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Caruso will miss a sixth straight game due to a right adductor strain. The veteran swingman's next opportunity to suit up will come against the Magic on Tuesday. With Ajay Mitchell (abdomen) also unavailable, Cason Wallace, Isaiah Joe and Aaron Wiggins are candidates for increased minutes.

Caruso is out for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves with a right adductor strain.
EDGE Analysis
Sunday's contest against the Nuggets marks Caruso's next chance to end a five-game absence. With Oklahoma City also set to be without Ajay Mitchell (abdomen) on Thursday, the likes of Luguentz Dort, Isaiah Joe and Aaron Wiggins are each worthy of streaming consideration in fantasy leagues.

Caruso is out for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans with a right adductor strain.
EDGE Analysis
Caruso will be sidelined for a fourth straight contest and carries no clear timetable for a return to the floor. With Oklahoma City also missing Ajay Mitchell (abdomen), Luguentz Dort, Isaiah Joe and Aaron Wiggins should all see enough playing time on the wing to warrant streaming consideration.

Caruso (adductor) won't play Sunday versus the Raptors.
EDGE Analysis
Sunday will mark Caruso's third consecutive game on the inactive list, and it's not a great sign that he continues to get ruled out 24 hours in advance of tipoff. Cason Wallace, Isaiah Joe and Luguentz Dort will be asked to help fill the void in Caruso's absence.

Caruso (adductor) won't play Friday versus the Pacers, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ajay Mitchell (abdominal) will join Caruso on the sidelines for Friday's game, and Aaron Wiggins (groin) is questionable, so Isaiah Joe could get some time to shine. Caruso's next chance to play will come Sunday versus the Raptors, and for now, he should be considered questionable for that contest.
