Yes … still illegal in Texas.
TMZ Sports has confirmed 27-year-old Caruso was arrested earlier today by Texas A&M University PD for marijuana possession (under 2 ounces) and possession of drug paraphernalia.
TSA agents at Easterwood Airport in College Station, TX allegedly found the grinder and weed residue … so they contacted A&M cops, according to a report.
Caruso — who starred at A&M between 2012-2016 — was released on $3,000 cash bond, according to Brazos County jail records. The docs also show Alex paid a $552 fine for the paraphernalia charge.
A.C. went undrafted in 2016 … before catching on with the OKC Thunder. In 2017, Caruso signed with the Lakers … and has been a fan favorite since coming to Los Angeles.
Caruso averaged 6 points and nearly 3 rebounds and 3 assists this season with the Lakers.
