NBA fans were rightly in awe of Alex Caruso’s beautiful block on Lonzo Ball

The legend of Alex Caruso only grows after this block.

Zion Williamson was the center of attention in his first game against LeBron James and the Lakers in Los Angeles, but another high-flying player stole the spotlight with one beautiful block in the fourth quarter – Alex Caruso.

Yup, the Lakers guard, who has become a fan-favorite in LA, had a block on Lonzo Ball in the fourth quarter that had the fans in Staples Center going nuts.

Just when it looked like Ball, who was back playing against the Lakers in LA for the first time since being traded last summer, had a clear path to a layup, Caruso came in for the block.

Check this out:

The ball even went out of bounds on Ball and then Caruso immediately did this on the other end:

Twitter loved the block:
