Caruso currently has four shoes available on Anta's website, ranging from $108 to $239.
Golden State Warriors rookie James Wiseman is also a newcomer to the brand and will also promote the Project Z-Up line, according to DePaula. Wiseman joins his teammate Klay Thompson as an ambassador for the brand.
Thompson signed with the Chinese company in 2015, and it designed his signature shoe, the KT Fire, according to its website.
In addition to Caruso and the pair of Golden State stars, the brand has also collaborated with former NBA greats as well as other newcomers. Other players with shoes available on the website include Rajon Rondo, Gordon Hayward, Kevin Garnett and Precious Achiuwa.
