Lakers forward out as precaution vs. Mavericks
Jarred Vanderbilt missed the second half against Dallas after bumping legs with Dereck Lively II and picking up a left quad contusion. The Lakers took no risks—better safe than sorry this close to Opening Night.
He still posted five points, seven boards, and four assists in 13 minutes—basically doing more in a quarter than most of us do in a gym membership year.
