What happened to Christian Wood and Jarred Vanderbilt?

Christian Wood will be out of action due to swelling in his left knee, with the Lakers planning to evaluate his condition in a week.

Jarred Vanderbilt's season has been fraught with difficulties, starting with bursitis in his left heel that sidelined him for the initial 20 games.

Even after making his return, Vanderbilt's playtime was restricted as he strived to attain peak health and manage pain.

His challenges were compounded following an injury to his right foot during a game against the Celtics.

Preliminary X-rays did not show any fractures, yet additional examinations, as noted by ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Brad Turner of the Los Angeles Times, indicate that the injury might be severe enough to keep him off the court for the season's duration.
