This was a rough season for the Lakers, but Jarred Vanderbilt had a particularly bad one where he played so well but found himself too often on the injury report.
From the moment Jarred Vanderbilt was traded to the Lakers back in 2023, he was an integral part of the team. His defensive versatility and size are what every team dreams of having on the wing.
When Vanderbilt re-signed in the summer, he helped the Lakers maintain continuity heading into the 2023/24 season.
