Jarred Vanderbilt Questionable as Lakers Face Game 3 Pressure
Vanderbilt's right finger dislocation from Game 1 puts L.A.'s defensive margin in jeopardy against a Thunder team with more two-way firepower.
Jarred Vanderbilt is listed as questionable heading into Game 3 of the Lakers' second-round series against Oklahoma City after suffering a nasty right finger dislocation in Game 1. The injury threatens to strip Los Angeles of one of its most versatile defenders at the worst possible time, as the Lakers already face mounting pressure to find answers against a roster loaded with two-way talent. Austin Reaves remains under the microscope as the Lakers search for reliable shot-making and secondary creation beyond their top options.
