Crashing the boards, throwing up jump hooks, and deterring shots all night, the potential of Ivica Zubac was on full display Wednesday in the Clippers’ battle against the Nuggets. And though that battle resulted in a loss for the Clippers, the production and development of Zubac has become a point of personal pride for Clips Nation and me.
While Zubac and Nikola Jokic were having their duel, across the country, another big was also putting up a career night.
Joel Embiid, who posted 50 points on 17-for-23 shooting on Wednesday, led his team to a victory over the Orlando Magic.
