The Golden State Warriors’ player JaMychal Green is someone the Los Angeles Lakers ought to think about acquiring.

As of right now, the Los Angeles Lakers are ranked ninth in the Western Conference after going 25-25 in their first 50 games.

The squad received negative news on Friday when Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN stated that Jarred Vanderbilt would be out of the lineup for for a long time.

After 29 games, Vanderbilt is shooting 51.8% from the field and averaging 5.2 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 1.2 steals per game.

According to insiders, Vanderbilt needs to evaluate the right mid-foot area more, and it’s possible that his absence may be longer than a few weeks. Vanderbilt is undoubtedly one of the team’s top defenders and has recently displayed some of his greatest play as a Laker.

The 33-year-old played 57 games during the regular season (he also started two of his seven NBA playoff games) and averaged 6.4 points and 3.6 rebounds per game while shooting 54.0% from the field and 37.8% from three-point range.

Green has the capacity to partially compensate for what they would lose with Vanderbilt down, even though he isn’t a long-term fix.

Los Angeles wouldn’t be at danger because he could also be signed to a non-guaranteed deal, or even a ten-day one.

The Lakers are still regarded as a team that is competitive for NBA Championships since they have LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
