Top Jarred Vanderbilt News

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: May have larger path to minutes

    Vanderbilt should continue to provide defensive value after LeBron James' exit from the Lakers, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Despite James' absence, the arrivals of Matisse Thybulle, Ziaire Williams and Sandro Mamukelashvili give the Lakers additional options on the wing and in the frontcourt. While Vanderbilt's rebounding and defensive versatility remain valuable, increased competition for minutes could make it difficult for him to carve out a reliable fantasy role.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Sees three minutes in loss

    Vanderbilt finished Monday's 115-110 loss to the Thunder in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals with zero points (0-1 FG) and one rebound over three minutes.

    After suffering a finger injury in Game 1, Vanderbilt made his second appearance of the series in Monday's Game 4. He played a very minor role for the Lakers in the regular season, posting averages of 4.4 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.8 steals in 17.4 minutes across 65 appearances.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Available to play

    Vanderbilt (finger) is available for Saturday's Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.

    Vanderbilt is back after a one-game absence, which could result in fewer minutes for Dalton Knecht and Jake LaRavia. Vanderbilt is averaging 3.3 points and 3.8 rebounds in 12.1 minutes per game this postseason.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Questionable for Game 3

    Vanderbilt (finger) is questionable for Saturday's Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals versus the Thunder, Ryan Ward of SI.com reports.

    Vanderbilt missed Game 2 on Thursday after dislocating his right pinky finger in Tuesday's Game 1 loss, but there's a chance he could return for Game 3 on Saturday. If he's cleared to play, Dalton Knecht and Jake LaRavia's minutes could dip a bit.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Ruled out Thursday

    Vanderbilt (finger) has been ruled out for Thursday's Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Thunder.

    Vanderbilt will miss Game 2 after exiting Tuesday's Game 1 loss in the second quarter due to a dislocated right finger. The forward is considered day-to-day, so a return for Saturday's Game 3 remains possible, though his absence could lead to increased opportunities off the bench for Jake LaRavia in the meantime.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Doubtful for Thursday

    Vanderbilt (finger) is doubtful for Thursday's Western Conference Semifinals Game 2 against the Thunder, per Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com.

    Vanderbilt suffered a dislocated right finger during the second quarter of Tuesday's Western Conference Semifinals Game 1 loss to the Thunder. With Vanderbilt expected to miss Game 2 on Thursday, Jake LaRavia is an option for an expanded role.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Considered day-to-day

    Vanderbilt is day-to-day with a dislocated right finger, per Thuc Nhi Nguyen of the Los Angeles Times.

    Vanderbilt suffered the injury during the second quarter of Tuesday's Western Conference Semifinals Game 1 loss to the Thunder. It sounds like he has a chance to play through the issue going forward, so Vanderbilt can be tentatively viewed as questionable for Game 2 on Thursday in Oklahoma City.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Diagnosed with dislocated finger

    Vanderbilt has been diagnosed with a full dislocation of his right pinky finger, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

    Vanderbilt exited Tuesday's Western Conference Semifinals Game 1 loss to the Thunder in the second quarter after hitting the backboard and injuring his finger. He was quickly ruled out for the remainder of the game after exiting to the locker room and can be considered doubtful for Game 2 on Thursday until the Lakers offer an update on his status.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Won't return Tuesday

    Vanderbilt (finger) has been ruled out for the remainder of Tuesday's Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Thunder, Khobi Price of The California Post reports. He'll close with two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound across six minutes.

    Vanderbilt exited to the locker room in the second quarter due to a right finger injury and will remain sidelined for the remainder of Tuesday's contest. The forward's playing time has decreased of late, so his absence shouldn't create major ripple effects in the Lakers' rotation, though Jake LaRavia could see a slightly larger role off the bench. More updates will likely follow, but for now, Vanderbilt should be considered questionable for Game 2 on Thursday.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Leaves for locker room

    Vanderbilt exited to the locker room in the second quarter of Tuesday's Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Thunder due to an apparent right hand injury, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.

    Vanderbilt attempted to contest a dunk but ended up hitting his right hand on the backboard. He appeared to be in a considerable amount of pain while heading back to the locker room and can be considered questionable to return until further notice.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Exits rotation in Game 6 win

    Vanderbilt (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Friday in the Lakers' 98-78 win over the Rockets in Game 6 of the first-round playoff series.

    Lakers head coach JJ Redick utilized an eight-man rotation while Friday's contest was still competitive, and Vanderbilt ended up losing hold of his spot on the second unit while Luke Kennard, Jake LaRavia and Jaxson Hayes operated as the team's main reserves. The Lakers could eventually get Luka Doncic (hamstring) back at some point during their Western Conference Semifinals series versus the Thunder, and Vanderbilt will face an even tougher path to regaining playing time once Los Angeles is at full strength. Before failing to get off the bench Friday, Vanderbilt had appeared in 11 straight games dating back to the regular season and averaged 4.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 14.3 minutes.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Notches eight points

    Vanderbilt accumulated eight points (4-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds and one steal across 14 minutes during Sunday's 115-96 loss to the Rockets in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    This was Vanderbilt's best game of the series as he logged at least 14 minutes for the fourth game in a row. Overall this series, he's averaging 15.3 minutes per contest with 4.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 0.5 steals.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Will suit up Sunday

    Vanderbilt (calf) is available for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.

    Vanderbilt will shake off a questionable tag and should see increased playing time moving forward, as Austin Reaves (oblique) and Luka Doncic (hamstring) are out for at least a month, while Marcus Smart (ankle) also remains sidelined. Over his past 10 appearances, Vanderbilt has averaged 3.1 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 13.2 minutes per game.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Questionable for Sunday

    Vanderbilt is questionable for Sunday's game in Dallas due to right calf soreness, Thuc Nhi Nguyen of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Vanderbilt may want to test his calf while going through his pregame routine, so he could be headed for a game-time call Sunday. If he's ruled out, that could open up some minutes for Jake LaRavia and Maxi Kleber.
