A shop worker has called out Jarred Vanderbilt for returning his clothes worth $2,000
The upcoming young star was captured arriving in Golden State as the LA Lakers visited for their second-round matchup. Following the victory, Vanderbilt allegedly returned the exact same clothing to the shop where he had bought it.
What has been the story?
The person who sold him the garments claims they were not present when he returned the items, so the return was successful. The worker criticised Jarred Vanderbilt in a social media post about the incident and vowed to root against the Lakers for the remainder of the series.

“Nice man, but… bought $2000 worth of clothing on Monday, specifically this outfit. He used it for Tuesday’s tunnel and post-game, and then he gave it back yesterday. Someone took the return while I wasn’t in the store. Lord alone knows why. Clothing that is clearly used. Maybe now I have more of a reason to despise the Lakers and support my home team.”
The performance of Jarred Vanderbilt in the playoffs
Vanderbilt has received a lot of acclaim from fans after being moved to the LA Lakers. He has contributed significantly to the team’s success during the postseason, particularly on the defensive end of the court. Darvin Ham has specifically assigned the 24-year-old star to guard Steph Curry during the current series against the Golden State Warriors.
Ham has demonstrated why Vanderbilt is a key member of the squad by looking back on this postseason. After defeating the Grizzlies in Game 4 of the first round, he addressed the media, saying:
“Jarred Vanderbilt has often demonstrated his desire to play against difficult opponents like Ja Morant and Steph Curry. Of course, the Lakers can only hope that Vanderbilt can make things difficult for Curry when they face the four-time champion and the Golden State Warriors in the second round.”
There simply is no stopping the former MVP, as evidenced by his career. The best that the opposition can hope for is that their defender manages to limit the harm. Vanderbilt has performed admirably thus far in this series, as evidenced by Steph Curry’s 27 points in Game 1 and 20 points in Game 2.
