Overview

• After a 111-103 preseason loss to the Warriors on Oct. 5, Redick praised Vanderbilt's progress and highlighted improved movement, tighter handle and a rare euro-decel finish.
• Vanderbilt posted 9 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals against Golden State and hit a corner three, building on his defensive impact from the opener.
• Redick said minutes will be earned and did not rule out lineup changes, noting a starting spot could be in play if performance sustains.
• In the Oct. 3 opener, a 103-81 loss to the Suns, Redick called Vanderbilt a bright spot for his disruptive defense, which included a steal and a block despite 0-for-4 shooting.
• Redick believes Vanderbilt looks close to his pre-injury form after a healthy offseason, while the forward’s stated goal is to stay available following two injury-hit years with 65 appearances in 164 games.
