Lakers head coach JJ Redick on F Jarred Vanderbilt:
“There's still a few progressions [needed] to ultimately return to an NBA game. He had an off day yesterday. Today was a lighter day. And now we're going to ramp him back up. It'll be a little bit of a mixed bag over the next week with live play against coaches. Live play with coaches. Trying to mix in a little with the stay ready group. We'll get enough exposure to live simulation. Hopefully he's back soon. It's close, but it's not going to be this week.”
Lakers PG trade targets:
- Collin Sexton (UTA)
- Lonzo Ball (CHI)
