After last night’s marathon, Clippers bring same roster to Denver:
– Ivica Zubac out (calf)
– Boston/Preston out (G-League)
Good sign that PG and Kawhi are all set as of now after way too many regular season minutes. – 7:20 PM

Brandon Boston and Jason Preston also are out for G League duty. – 7:16 PM

I’ll also say this… defense should be better, obviously. But a lot of that comes down to PG as well. Teams seem to be their warmest when PG has been on the floor.
Since Jan. 7
– Mann/PG/Kawhi/Morris/Zu: 118.1 def. eff. in 142 min.
– Same, but Nico for PG: 104.7 in 52 min. – 7:01 PM

Ty Lue says Ivica Zubac, out tonight, is more day to day moving forward. Zu did not do anything at practice yesterday but that was due to illness. – 9:06 PM

More on this storyline
Law Murray: It really sounds like Friday’s starting lineup *could* be Russell Westbrook, Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, Marcus Morris Sr., Ivica Zubac. Just based on Tyronn Lue’s description of what he is looking forward to after last night’s practice and ahead of today’s. We’ll see tomorrow -via Twitter @LawMurrayTheNU / February 23, 2023
LA Clippers: Kawhi Leonard (right knee injury management) and Paul George (right hamstring injury management) have been downgraded to out for Wednesday’s game against Utah. Ivica Zubac (left knee contusion) is questionable. -via HoopsHype / January 18, 2023
Teams are shooting 47.1 percent from the field so far this season, the highest in 30 years. Back in 1992-93, teams averaged only nine 3s attempted per game. Now, you have eight individual players averaging at least nine 3-point attempts per game. The jump shots come primarily from 3-point range instead of the midrange, and teams are taking advantage to score more efficiently in the paint. “The NBA is a very offensive game,” Zubac said. “They want to push the offense a lot. Everyone’s floor is spaced out. There’s a lot of space, and there’s a lot of space for guys to work. And you know, I think the guys that are in the league are more talented than — I don’t know, I think the level of talent in the league is incredible right now. I don’t know, guys are talented, and they want this to be an offensive game. So it is what it is.” -via The Athletic / January 11, 2023
