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.

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.

Vanderbilt is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Grizzlies due to right leg soreness.

Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Matches Doncic with 11 rebounds
Vanderbilt chipped in seven points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt), 11 rebounds and one assist over 25 minutes during Thursday's 143-135 victory over the Jazz.
Although Jaxson Hayes slid into a starting role with Deandre Ayton (elbow) on the sidelines, Vanderbilt finished with the big rebound total. Hayes managed only three boards, while Vanderbilt and Luka Doncic led the rebound brigade with 11 each. Now in his third full season with the Lakers, Vanderbilt's production remains minimal, averaging just 17.6 minutes across 17 games.

Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt: Part of rotation Sunday
Vanderbilt chipped in seven points (2-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one block and two steals in 15 minutes during Sunday's 116-114 win over the Suns.
Vanderbilt played double-digit minutes for the first time since Nov. 14. After not seeing the floor in eight straight games, the defensive-minded forward has received minutes in two of the Lakers' past three games. With Austin Reaves (calf) sidelined for at least a week, coach JJ Redick might open up the rotation, which could bode well for Vanderbilt's playing time.
