Alex Caruso wore the perfect T-shirt during the Oklahoma City Thunder’s championship parade on Tuesday.
Caruso arrived at the parade wearing a shirt depicting Mount Rushmore, except with Caruso’s face on all four heads. The shirt very quickly went viral on social media.

A video shared by the NBA’s social media accounts offered a better view. In addition to the shirt, Caruso wore the ring he won with the Los Angeles Lakers on a chain around his neck.

Caruso won that title in the bubble in 2020, so he never actually got to celebrate it with a parade. He is making up for lost time on Tuesday with the Thunder, so his decision to include his ring from Los Angeles is likely not a coincidence, although he might not think too highly of it.
The veteran guard has become a hugely popular part of Oklahoma City’s championship team. He was an integral part of their elite defensive play, and even became something of a team leader in all respects. He is undoubtedly a fan favorite and is fully embracing it.
