Jarred Vanderbilt News, Rumors, Updates - Los Angeles Lakers

Moves into starting lineup Vanderbilt will move into the starting lineup for Game 2 versus the Nuggets on Thursday according to Chris Haynes of Turner Sports.

Impact Dennis Schroder will head back to the bench with this news. Vanderbilt played a very limited role in the previous series, but the Lakers are opting for more defense and rebounding with this move.

Moves to second unit Vanderbilt will come off the bench in Game 6 against the Warriors on Friday, ESPN's Dave McMenamin reports.

Impact 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 hard to imagine the Lakers turning to him much in Game 6.

Impact Vanderbilt remained in the starting lineup Wednesday but managed just 11 minutes of playing time. Outside of a highlight block, Vanderbilt was unable to have any sort of a tangible impact. At this point, he is being used sparingly, depending on the individual game situation. Despite the loss, the Lakers will now head back to Los Angeles for Game 6, looking to advance to the Western Conference Finals.

Unproductive in victory Vanderbilt supplied two points (1-2 FG), four rebounds, one assist and one steal over 15 minutes during Sunday's 134-109 win over Houston.

Impact Vanderbilt started again Sunday but played only 15 minutes, his lowest amount since joining the Lakers. Despite having carved out a relatively consistent role, Vanderbilt sits outside the top 160 over the past month. At best, he should be looked at as a streaming consideration for anyone needing steals and boards.

Grabs 10 boards in win Vanderbilt produced two points (1-1 FG), 10 rebounds, two assists and one block across 23 minutes during Sunday's 111-105 victory over Orlando.

Impact Vanderbilt did very little offensively but was his usual self on defense in the win. The acquisition of Vanderbilt is a huge defensive upgrade for the Lakers, who have gone 9-5 with the Kentucky product in the starting lineup. After stints with the Jazz, Timberwolves and Nuggets, it appears that Vanderbilt has landed in an ideal spot, where his skills can be used to full effect.

Records double-double in loss Vanderbilt notched 13 points (6-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists and two steals across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 114-110 loss to Houston.

Impact The Lakers played without star big man Anthony Davis (foot) on Wednesday, and Vanderbilt picked up some of the slack in the post. He registered double-digit scoring for the first time in three games and recorded 10 rebounds for his third double-double as a Laker. Vanderbilt is a more useful player in real life than in fantasy, but he's rosterable in most leagues for his ability to rack up boards and steals.

Double-doubles in win Vanderbilt produced 10 points (5-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt), 13 rebounds, four assists and one steal across 24 minutes during Sunday's 113-105 victory over the Warriors.

Impact Vanderbilt cobbled together another strong performance Sunday, producing in all the right areas once again. Although his minutes have been a bit up and down over the past week, he is doing just enough to remain viable in standard fantasy formats. He offers upside in only a couple of categories, and so while he isn't for everyone, there is enough there for him to be useful in a range of situations -- especially with LeBron James (foot) sidelined.
