Dorian Finney-Smith accounted for 10 points (3-of-7 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), seven rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block and two three-pointers in 35 minutes in Sunday’s win over the Suns.
Finney-Smith returned to the Lakers’ lineup on Sunday after sitting out Friday’s loss to the Nuggets, bumping Jarred Vanderbilt (three rebounds in 10 minutes) to the bench. The veteran forward was solid in his 35 minutes, providing decent value in the rebound, assist and three-point categories. However, even with LeBron James (groin) sidelined, Finney-Smith is a deep-league player at best.
