Caruso's journey from undrafted free agent to two-time NBA champion and two-time All-Defensive selection is a testament to his relentless work ethic. He is one of the few players in NBA history to win multiple titles while being undrafted, and his back-to-back All-Defensive honors place him among the elite perimeter defenders of his era. His 2024 induction into the Texas A&M Athletics Hall of Fame recognizes his collegiate impact.

AwardsCaruso has won two NBA championships (2020, 2025) and earned two NBA All-Defensive Second Team selections (2023, 2024). In college, he was named to the SEC All-Defensive Team and second-team All-SEC in 2016.
