Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Another double-double in win
Zubac recorded 11 points (4-5 FG, 3-4 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 23 minutes during Sunday's 126-89 win over the Nets.
Zubac notched his fifth straight double-double and 23rd of the season, which seems to be like clockwork for the big man as he anchors down the center position for the Clippers. Ever since returning to the starting lineup Jan. 5 after being sidelined for five games due to an ankle injury, Zubac is averaging 13.4 points, 11.1 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.4 steals and 0.6 blocks on an astounding 60.9 percent from the field.

Zubac secured a game-high 19 rebounds in the win, 10 of which came on the offensive glass. He also posted his best scoring performance since Jan. 7 and did so in an efficient manner. Zubac has now turned in four straight double-doubles, averaging 15.0 points and 14.0 boards during this hot stretch.

Zubac turned in an efficient performance and finished as Los Angeles' third-leading scorer, scoring in double figures for a second straight game. The big man led all players with 12 rebounds as well, marking his second consecutive double-double and his fourth over his last seven appearances.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Double-double in overtime win
Zubac ended with 16 points (7-10 FG, 2-3 FT), 14 rebounds and two assists in 39 minutes during Friday's 121-117 overtime win over the Raptors.
Zubac returned from a one-game absence with a sprained left ankle and immediately resumed his usual production, recording his 19th double-double of the season. The veteran big man has been a reliable presence on the glass, pulling down double-digit rebounds in 23 of 35 games, and is averaging 14.9 points, 10.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 31.5 minutes per contest this year.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Available Friday
Zubac (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Raptors.
Zubac will shed his questionable tag and return from a one-game absence due to a sprained left ankle. The 28-year-old big man has started each of his last five appearances, averaging 12.6 points, 9.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.0 blocks across 29.4 minutes per game during that span.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Could play Friday
Zubac is questionable for Friday's game against the Raptors, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Zubac sat out of Wednesday's game due to a left ankle sprain, but he'll have a shot to return Friday night. The team should have a better idea of his availability after shootaround and leading up to pregame warmups.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Out with ankle sprain
Zubac won't play in Wednesday's game against the Wizards due to a left ankle sprain, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Zubac sat out the final minutes of Monday's 117-109 victory over Charlotte, and he's now sidelined altogether for Wednesday. The 28-year-old big man can be considered day-to-day ahead of Friday's tilt in Toronto. Brook Lopez seems to be the most likely choice to replace Zubac in the first unit, having averaged 10.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.2 blocks in 25.3 minutes per contest through six games as a starter this season.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Dealing with ankle injury
Zubac is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Wizards due to a left ankle sprain, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.
Per Russo, Zubac did not play during the final 14 minutes of the Clippers' win over the Hornets on Monday and was seen favoring his left ankle in the locker room following the game. Brook Lopez, John Collins and Yanic Konan Niederhauser would be in line for more minutes if Zubac is unable to play Wednesday.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Hauls in team-high 11 boards
Zubac recorded nine points (4-6 FG, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds and two assists across 27 minutes during Monday's 117-109 victory over Charlotte.
Zubac fell one board short of a double-double Monday. The 28-year-old center's minutes have stabilized after he recently returned from a sprained ankle, as Zubac has logged at least 25 minutes in five consecutive outings. For the month, Zubac has averaged 11.2 points, 8.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.0 blocks per contest in six appearances.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Posts another double-double in loss
Zubac accumulated 22 points (11-14 FG), 11 rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 123-111 loss to the Knicks.
Zubac seems to have returned to form after missing five games due to an ankle injury, as he converted 11 of his 14 field goals and grabbed a season-high eight offensive boards. Zubac's return means fewer minutes for Brook Lopez, who already has been trending downwards despite starting while the former was sidelined.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Logs double-double in starting role
Zubac logged 10 points (1-3 FG, 8-8 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and one block over 33 minutes during Monday's 103-102 win over Golden State.
Zubac returned over the weekend and played with the second unit. Monday, he returned to the starting lineup for the first time since Dec. 20 in the narrow victory. Thanks to superior play from Kawhi Leonard and James Harden, the Clippers went 5-0 while Zubac was sidelined, but his return will help keep the frontcourt secure and increase the team's chances for further success. Zubac is building on a great 2024-25 campaign by averaging 15.0 points, 11.0 rebounds and 2.5 assists over 30 games this season.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Will start Monday
Zubac will start against the Warriors on Monday, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Zubac returned from a five-game absence due to a Grade 2 left ankle sprain in Saturday's loss to Boston, recording four points (2-6 FG), seven rebounds and one assist across 21 minutes off the bench. While it's unclear if he'll remain on a minutes restriction Monday, the big man will return to the starting five. As a result, Brook Lopez should slide back to the second unit.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Limited to 21 minutes in return
Zubac (ankle) registered four points (2-6 FG), seven rebounds and one assist across 21 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 146-115 loss to the Celtics.
Though he made a speedier-than-expected return after he reportedly suffered a Grade 2 left ankle sprain in the Clippers' Dec. 20 win over the Lakers, Zubac operated with a major playing-time restriction following a five-game absence. For the first time since the 2020-21 season, Zubac was deployed off the bench, though he should eventually unseat Brook Lopez on the top unit once he gets fully ramped up. Prior to getting hurt, Zubac had been averaging 32.1 minutes per contest on the season, so after being limited to just 21 minutes Saturday, he could need a handful of games before he resumes seeing his normal allotment of playing time.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Coming off bench in return
Zubac will come off the bench against the Celtics on Saturday, Mark Medina of TheSportingTribune.com reports.
Zubac was cleared to return from a five-game absence due to a Grade 2 ankle sprain, well ahead of schedule given the nature of his injury. He won't be rushed back to a full workload and will operate on a minutes restriction off the bench, so Brook Lopez will likely remain in the starting lineup and Yanic Konan Niederhauser should also see some minutes in the rotation.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Cleared to play Saturday
Zubac (ankle) will be available for Saturday's game against the Celtics, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Zubac is ahead of schedule in his rehab from a Grade 2 left ankle sprain he sustained in a win over the Lakers on Dec. 20 and will suit up Saturday following a five-game absence. The veteran center was just recently cleared to return to on-court activities, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him operate under a minutes restriction against Boston. Still, his return will leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Brook Lopez and Yanic Konan Niederhauser.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Progressing in recovery
Zubac (ankle) has progressed enough in his recovery to participate in on-court activities, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.
Zubac suffered a Grade 2 left ankle sprain against the Lakers on Dec. 20. It's an injury that typically takes at least three weeks to recover from, so the veteran center should be re-evaluated by medical staff in mid-January, at which point the Clippers will have a clearer idea of when Zubac can return to the lineup. Brook Lopez will likely continue to start at center for the Clippers for as long as Zubac is on the shelf.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Out for at least three weeks
Zubac sustained a Grade 2 left ankle sprain during the Clippers' 103-88 win over the Lakers on Saturday and is expected to be sidelined for at least three weeks, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports.
Zubac sustained the injury in the first quarter of Saturday's game, and further tests diagnosed the veteran center with a Grade 2 ankle sprain. The injury will keep him sidelined through mid-January and opens the door for Brook Lopez to enter the Clippers' starting lineup. Kobe Brown -- who has played just four minutes over the Clippers' last two games -- could also see a significant boost in playing time off the bench for as long as Zubac is sidelined.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Goes to locker room
Zubac limped to the locker room with an apparent ankle injury during Saturday's game versus the Lakers, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.
Zubac appeared to roll his left ankle and wasn't able to put much weight on it. The Clippers will likely provide an update shortly, but his night could be done.

Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Won't return Saturday
Zubac will not return to Saturday's game against the Lakers due to a left ankle injury, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Zubac rolled his left ankle, and while he was able to walk off the court under his own power, he was sporting a serious limp as he went back to the locker room. For now, Zubac should be considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Rockets, and if he needs to miss time, that would benefit John Collins and Brook Lopez.
