Alex Caruso made the headlines on Tuesday night after getting arrested for possession of marijuana in Texas, sparking any kind of reaction around the NBA community. The Los Angeles Lakers guard is the last person you’d expect to get involved in this situation but life is full of surprise.
Memes didn’t take long to arrive, as the community had a blast at the expense of Caruso. Even LeBron James jumped on that train and joined the Twitter world. When Josiah Johnson shared a clip of how Bron will ‘save’ Alex from jail, the King couldn’t agree more.
The video shows a guy is screaming to a cat in a store, promising he would get the animal out of there.

Caruso has become one of the most beloved people around the league and the Lakers’ locker room. He has become a social media phenom out of nowhere, which is why everybody was shocked when the news about his arrest came out.
Fortunately, he was released a couple of hours after being detained, and LeBron didn’t have to do anything. The player is ready to continue his vacation after being eliminated in the first round of the postseason.
