Dillon Brooks Rips Lakers' Jarred Vanderbilt in Video After Question About 'Dumb' NBA Players

Julia StumbaughMay 16, 2026

The Phoenix Suns' Dillon Brooks called out Los Angeles Lakers forward Jarred Vanderbilt when asked on a recent Twitch livestream with the streamer Ray to name a "dumb NBA player."

"This guy doesn't even like me, to be honest, but who cares— Jarred Vanderbilt, on the Lakers," Brooks answered.

Brooks continued, "He's like a rebounder, can't shoot. Defense. I just think that he's got way more potential that he's not untapping."
