šØBrother you said it. If it is in smallball situations Vanderbilt can solve it. But just because he's 6'-10" doesn't mean he can play center now. Look AD is 7' and he wants a center for him to move to PF š¤·š¾āāļø. We need a real center.
I don't think height is the problem for him to play the 5 in spurts since he's got the length. The problem is he'd be outweighed and outmuscled by any premiere big man or in the playoffs if they tried to give him minutes there. If he gains weight to guard the 5 then he's hurting his ability to guard 1-4, which is much more versatile for what the lakers need him to do and did last post season.
Most definitely not a solution to our big man problem no way hell Vanderbilt is gonna be able to guard centers he does have the weight or strength for that
I don't understand why Lakers is very keen to get Christian Wood for center position. When you say a center position, he must be a solid defender, solid rim protector and solid shot blocker. All of these qualities are not possessed by Wood. Just look at his body built, he can't even contain the likes of Nikola Jokic, or Embiid.

Put Jarred on the rack and stretch him to 7 feet
Skill set isnāt a C. But more height will help guarding Wings.
No.

We need a 7 foot legit! Center to take on the best big men in the paint! Period!!! Lakers lost to Denver due to the domination in the paint!
This is like the caruso a few years ago Vanderbilt already 24 and 25. Lakers still need C wood. Yes vandy had been working on his shot and game.
Vando is not da lakers is looking for to play da real center positionā¦..
If Vando got taller and can hit jumpers and the 3 ball he will be a triple threat!!! Sheesh
He needs to bulk up a few pounds as well
