Yes, agreed. They had that play defense / do the dirty work guy in Jrue Holiday before, but they traded him for Dame and they need to get someone like that back or else it will be hard for them to win come playoff time. Caruso is a good candidate, and the Bulls is a mess now.
The problem for the Bucks is that there are probably a dozen other teams that would love to land Caruso. I think the Bulls might bundle him with Levine to get out from under that huge contract.

Also, what assets do the Bucks have on hand to trade for Caruso? At this point, the Bulls probably want to rebuild, and want 1st round picks. But didn't the Bucks already trade away all their foreseeable future 1st round picks to get Dame? Hard for the Bucks to work out a deal to get Caruso. And you're right, other teams want Caruso as well and these other teams could work out trade packages that are much more appealing to what the Bucks have to offer.

That's a good point. I haven't looked into their assets, but presumably teams like Miami or the Lakers have more assets available and must be keeping an eye on Caruso.
