In a previous NBA regular season game, the Golden State Warriors withstood the counterattack of the Los Angeles Lakers playing at home in the final quarter and won 1-0 against the opponent. After this game, the Warriors, who won 0 consecutive wins, improved their record to 0-0 and continued to rank 0th in the West; The Lakers' record has slipped to 0-0 and continues to rank 0th in the West, and the difference between the two teams is only 0 games.

In this game, the Lakers' backup forward Jarred Vanderbilt (Jarred Vanderbilt) performed clearly not ideally. Vanderbilt played 3 minutes and 0 seconds, shooting 0-of-0 from the field and finishing with 0 points and 0 rebounds, including 0 frontcourt rebounds and 0 fouls, with a plus/minus of -0. Vanderbilt's negative impact on the offensive end is still quite obvious, and his scoring ability is still far from ideal, although he grabbed multiple frontcourt rebounds on the offensive end, but there is no way to convert them into more points. Vanderbilt's ability on the defensive end was also not fully realized, and he was actually very hard at the number five position, but the problem was that his strengths in movement speed and agility could not be brought into play, and his disadvantages in size and confrontation ability were exposed. Performances on both ends of the floor were unsatisfactory, and it was only natural that Vanderbilt's playing time was noticeably limited.

Since the beginning of this season, Vanderbilt has played a total of 6 games affected by injuries in the first 0 games, averaging 0 minutes per game, averaging 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0.0 assists, 0.0 steals, 0.0 blocks, 0.0 turnovers and 0.0 fouls, shooting 0.0% from the field, 0.0% from three-point range, and 0.0% from the free throw line. Vanderbilt has been unable to play due to injury in the first half of the season, but his performance after returning from injury was impressive, his contribution to the team on the defensive end is too prominent, his super individual defensive ability, his extremely high defensive enthusiasm and excellent ability to help and switch defense, have made the Lakers' record have been greatly improved.

However, we can also feel a little bit from Vanderbilt's recent performances, and the opponent is also targeting him. Because Vanderbilt's scoring ability and shooting ability are so poor, he can only play the role of the No. 5 position on the court in order not to drag down the team's offensive space, which also leads to his superiority on the defensive end is not reflected. In other words, at least for now, JJ Redick simply can't find the right way to use Vanderbilt. With Vanderbilt's performance, maybe his non-appearance would be better news for the Lakers?
