Vanderbilt will come off the bench in Game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Warriors on Friday, ESPN's Dave McMenamin reports.
Dennis Schroder will join D'Angelo Russell in the backcourt as the Lakers go smaller to counter Golden State's small-ball approach. Vanderbilt played a combined 22 minutes in the previous two games, so it's unlikely the Lakers will turn to him much in Game 6.
