The latest NBA title is the second for Alex Caruso, who won the championship in 2020 with the LA Lakers in the “bubble,” during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Trolls tried to diminish that Lakers’ title due to the circumstances, prompting Caruso to joke that this one with the Thunder is a “real one” and nobody can say anything about it.

Alex Caruso proud to have done his role in helping Thunder win the title

Alex Caruso is proud to have done his role in helping the OKC Thunder win their first-ever NBA title.

Speaking in an interview with The Athletic after their 103-91 victory in Game 7 over the Indiana Pacers on Sunday, Caruso highlighted that even though his contribution is not glamorous, he is fine with it.

“I think just through my career, I figured out that I can do stuff that’s not necessarily sexy or not necessarily the mainstream offensive or even defensive skill set that people recognize. I just leaned into it. I practiced being great at the stuff that nobody else does, carving a role for myself in the league. I think through the years, I’ve just kind of perfected that stuff.”

Caruso was a key piece off the bench in his first year with the Thunder, averaging 7.1 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.6 steals in 20 minutes per game. But more than the numbers, he provided a lot of hustle and grit that significantly improved the attack of the team all season long and in the playoffs.

Social Media Is Sending Their Prayers To Clint Eastwood Today

Clint Eastwood turned 95 recently, but it hasn’t been an easy year for the legendary actor and director.

On Tuesday, fans across the country poured out messages of support as news spread about his recent struggles. Eastwood has been mourning the sudden death of his longtime partner, Christina Sandera, who passed away from a heart attack earlier this year.

The Hollywood icon has kept a low profile since her passing. For fans who’ve followed his career for decades, seeing Eastwood go through this personal loss has struck a chord. Though the actor has rarely been seen in public in recent months, his son Scott Eastwood shared a welcome update that gave many people a reason to breathe a little easier.

Fans Rally Behind Eastwood

Scott Eastwood, in a recent interview, reassured fans that his father is holding up. “He’s doing good,” he said. “He’s a survivor, a trouper. He was born coming out of the Great Depression, and then he was young during World War II. He saw a lot of struggle.” That perspective seems to be carrying Eastwood through yet another chapter of hardship.

Supporters didn’t hesitate to show their love. Social media lit up with tributes, memories, and heartfelt messages. Many highlighted not only his contributions to film but also his resilience as a person.

“There are literally hundreds of reasons why a man doesn’t get better with age,” one fan posted on X.

Another fan commented, “HE IS NEVER GONNA STOP!!!!”

Another fan chimed in, “I hope he blesses us with his presence for many more years!”

Photographs from December 2018 show Eastwood attending the premiere of The Mule with Sandera by his side. The two had been together for years, and her sudden loss clearly left a mark on him. Though the grief remains, Eastwood isn’t ready to slow down completely. In an interview with Kurier on May 30, he reflected on aging with intent. “There’s no reason why a man can’t get better with age,” he said. “And I have much more experience today. Sure, there are directors who lose their touch at a certain age, but I’m not one of them.”

Clint Eastwood, who has eight children- Laurie, Kimber, Alison, Francesca, Kyle, Kathryn, Scott and Morgan- continues to lean on family during this time. For fans, the hope is simple: that he keeps creating, keeps going, and, most of all, keeps finding strength in the days ahead.
