Jarred Vanderbilt's return to the court after nearly a year sidelined by injury demonstrated his resilience and ability to impact the game immediately. In just 12 minutes, he contributed four rebounds, two points, two assists, and three steals. His teammates, including LeBron James, acknowledged his energetic presence and impactful plays that often go unnoticed on the stat sheet. Vanderbilt emphasized his focus on playing hard and controlling what he could, which was evident in his performance despite the long layoff.
To come back in his first game...and have three steals, have the playmaking and assists - caught the ball in the pocket, found a guy on the opposite corner for the three.
My main goal was to just go out there, play hard, bring the energy, just control the controllables and everything else will play its hand.
