The Los Angeles Lakers received a positive update on Jarred Vanderbilt just days after the forward suffered a painful finger injury during the Western Conference semifinal series against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Vanderbilt dislocated his right pinky finger in Game 1 when his hand hit the backboard during a block attempt against Thunder big man Chet Holmgren. The injury forced Vanderbilt to miss multiple games as the Lakers fell behind 3-0 in the series.
Now, with Los Angeles facing elimination after Saturday’s Game 3 loss, Vanderbilt appears to be progressing quickly. California Post
