Vanderbilt Basketball Player Report Card: Tyrin Lawrence
Reviewing Tyrin Lawrence and Rodney Chatman back to back provides an interesting contrast, to say the least, because Lawrence was the main beneficiary of Chatman’s absences throughout the season: Lawrence’s 13 starts all came when Chatman was on the shelf.
And Vanderbilt went 6-7 in those games. That’s probably a bit unfair to Lawrence, but it’s not as though he was all that productive. He wasn’t a good three-point shooter and he was fairly turnover-prone as well. Lawrence was Vanderbilt’s top-rated recruit in the 2020 class, and after missing most of the 2020-21 season to a torn ACL, this was basically his freshman year.
