Top Jarred Vanderbilt News

  • 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.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Re-enters rotation Thursday

    Vanderbilt registered nine points (4-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and three steals over 12 minutes during Thursday's 139-96 loss to the Thunder.

    Vanderbilt has had a hard time staying in the Lakers' rotation, but he was able to make an appearance with Thursday's game getting out of hand early. Considering he didn't see the floor in Tuesday's win over Cleveland, Vanderbilt isn't a lock to see steady playing time during the final week of the regular season.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Moves back out of rotation

    Vanderbilt (coach's decision) didn't receive any playing time Monday in the Lakers' 100-92 win over the Rockets.

    After a recent stretch in which he appeared in five straight games and averaged 12.0 minutes, Vanderbilt has now been left out of head coach JJ Redick's rotation for the past two contests. The Lakers seem content to lean on Jaxson Hayes and Rui Hachimura to fill out minutes in the frontcourt when starters LeBron James and Deandre Ayton are off the court.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Removed from rotation

    Vanderbilt (coach's decision) went unused off the bench in Sunday's 128-104 win over the Kings.

    Vanderbilt ended up dropping out of the rotation after he had appeared in each of the Lakers' last 35 games and averaged 4.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 0.9 steals in 18.8 minutes per contest during that stretch. The veteran big man had been trending down prior to his absence Sunday, playing no more than 12 minutes in any of his last five appearances while converting on just 36.4 percent of his field-goal attempts. Head coach JJ Redick went with Maxi Kleber (13 minutes) on the second unit in lieu of Vanderbilt in what could prove to be more than a one-time arrangement.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Shows two-way potential

    Vanderbilt ended Saturday's 105-99 win over Golden State with 13 points (4-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 19 minutes.

    Saturday marked Vanderbilt's fourth game this season with multiple threes. He also grabbed eight rebounds and forced some turnovers on defense. The Lakers rotation has fluctuated all season long, so a few more strong showings could lead to Vanderbilt's role expanding.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Records season-high four steals

    Vanderbilt had seven points (3-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt), one rebound, two assists, one block and four steals across 22 minutes during Thursday's 112-104 loss to the Clippers.

    Vanderbilt was a bright spot on the defensive end for the Lakers on Thursday, recording a season-high four swipes and his eighth game with one steal and one block. Across 12 games in January, the 26-year-old forward is averaging 4.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.5 blocks in 21.1 minutes per contest

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Logs 15 minutes in loss

    Vanderbilt recorded six points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and five rebounds across 15 minutes during Thursday's 135-117 loss to the Hornets.

    With Rui Hachimura back in the mix, Vanderbilt's path to playing time is obstructed. At least for the time being, Vanderbilt is really going to struggle to keep his fantasy value afloat due to a minor role in the frontcourt.

  • Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Not starting vs. Milwaukee

    Vanderbilt won't start against the Bucks on Friday, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

    With LeBron James (foot/sciatica) back in the lineup following a one-game absence, Vanderbilt will slide to the second unit. Over his last 10 appearances off the bench, the 26-year-old forward has averaged 6.6 points and 6.0 rebounds in 23.3 minutes per game.
