Jarred Vanderbilt suffered a full dislocation of his right pinkie during the Los Angeles Lakers' 108-90 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 1 on Tuesday night, sources told Shams Charania of ESPN. Vanderbilt suffered the injury when he hit the backboard after attempting to block a Chet Holmgren dunk. Vanderbilt screamed in pain, prompting the Lakers to call a timeout.
He's in as good of spirits as you can be in this situation, Lakers coach JJ Redick said after the game. Obviously, frustrated with what happened. Vanderbilt averaged 3.6 points and 4.4 rebounds in the first round against the Rockets.
