Expected to miss several weeks Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported Friday that Vanderbilt, who left Thursday's loss to the Celtics due to a foot injury, is expected to miss several weeks, but he'll undergo furth...

Impact Vanderbilt missed the start of the season due to left heel bursitis, but he's been a key piece of the rotation since returning to action in early December, playing at least 20 minutes in 15 of his last 21 appearances (six starts). With Vanderbilt sidelined, Rui Hachimura, Christian Wood and Taurean Prince are candidates for elevated roles, but it could also mean the Lakers will be more active ahead of the Feb. 8 trade deadline.

Won't return Thursday Vanderbilt won't return to Thursday's contest against the Celtics due to right foot soreness, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

Impact Vanderbilt was making his first start since Dec. 31, but an injury will force him to sit the rest of the contest. He ends Thursday's contest with 10 points (3-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and three steals across 16 minutes. Expect Rui Hachimura to see an uptick in minutes the rest of the way, as he started the second half in Vanderbilt's place.

FEBRUARY 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Thursday Vanderbilt will move into the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Celtics, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Lakers will be without LeBron James (ankle) and Anthony Davis (Achilles) Thursday evening, so Vanderbilt will get the spot-start and he'll be joined in the first unit by D'Angelo Russell, Austin Reaves, Taurean Prince and Jaxson Hayes. Vanderbilt makes for an attractive streamer with the increased opportunity.

Tossed Monday Vanderbilt was ejected in the first half of Monday's game versus Houston. He finished with three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 FT) and one steal in seven minutes of action.

Impact Vanderbilt picked up two technical fouls in rapid succession Monday, engaging in a brief shoving match with Dillon Brooks on the offensive glass, then proceeding to provocatively poke Brooks, which earned Vanderbilt an early exit Monday. The Lakers close a back-to-back Tuesday against Atlanta, representing Vanderbilt's next opportunity to take the court.

Big night off bench Saturday Vanderbilt supplied 14 points (4-7 FG, 6-8 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and four steals in 41 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 145-144 double-overtime win over the Warri...

Impact The 24-year-old forward took advantage of the extra court time, scoring in double digits for the fourth time in the last five games and recording multiple steals for the fourth straight contest. Vanderbilt has had a bumpy first full season with the Lakers, but he seems to be getting comfortable on the second unit, averaging 11.8 points, 6.4 boards, 2.4 steals and 1.8 assists over that five-game stretch while shooting 63.9 percent from the floor.

Sniffs double-double in loss Vanderbilt totaled 12 points (4-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals across 25 minutes during Tuesday's 127-116 loss to the Clippers.

Impact The platoon of Vanderbilt and Rui Hachimura was more involved in LeBron James' (ankle) absence, but Vanderbilt was the better option during the loss. Tuesday marked his second double-digit scoring result of the season, with the first total occurring against Brooklyn in the team's previous game.

Set to play Tuesday Vanderbilt (heel) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Clippers, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.

Impact Vanderbilt has been upgraded from probable to available Wednesday despite dealing with a nagging heel injury. With LeBron James (ankle) out, Vanderbilt could receive increased playing time.

JANUARY 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Probable for Tuesday Vanderbilt is listed as probable to play Tuesday against the Clippers due to left heel bursitis.

Impact Vanderbilt is on track to play, and his injury designation could be maintenance related, but appearing on injury report with the same injury that sidelined him for the first 20 games of the season is notable. Vanderbilt hasn't missed a game since Dec. 12, however, and he's averaging 6.6 points and 5.0 rebounds in 21.4 minutes across his last five contests.

Sticking in bench role vs. OKC Vanderbilt will come off the bench Monday against the Thunder, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Head coach Darvin Ham indicated a few hours before tipoff that Vanderbilt would enter the starting lineup for Monday's contest, but he later stated that he misheard McMenamin's question about the starting lineup and confirmed Taurean Prince as the starter at small forward. Vanderbilt has come off the bench in six straight contests and is averaging 3.3 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 20.7 minutes.

JANUARY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Joins starting lineup Vanderbilt is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Oklahoma City, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

Impact Vanderbilt gives the Lakers a defensively-oriented look on the wings in place of Taurean Prince with Cam Reddish (knee) set for a multi-game absence. Additionally, Vanderbilt profiles as a quality point-of-attack defender and returns to the first unit as part of the same lineup that the Lakers utilized en route to the Western Conference Finals last year.

JANUARY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Season high in minutes Thursday Vanderbilt produced six points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-4 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and two steals over 29 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 127-109 loss to Phoenix.

Impact The 24-year-old forward ended up playing a season high in minutes and setting a new season high in boards, taking on a bigger workload after Cam Reddish (knee) exited the game early. The Lakers have also been without Rui Hachimura (calf) for the last five games, so if Reddish misses additional time, Vanderbilt could be the biggest beneficiary. Given that he has yet to score double-digit points in any game this season though, even during a five-game stint as a starter in late December, it's hard to get too excited about his fantasy potential in a larger role.
