Clippers' Ivica Zubac to Miss Several Weeks with Ankle Sprain

Los Angeles Clippers center Ivica Zubac is set to miss several weeks due to a Grade 2 left ankle sprain. This injury occurred during the first half of the team's recent game against the Los Angeles Lakers, where Zubac fell to the court late in the first quarter and was unable to return, finishing with five points and two rebounds in just 11 minutes of play.

Prior to his injury, Zubac was averaging 16 points and 11.5 rebounds, highlighting his importance to the Clippers' lineup. Lakers center Jaxson Hayes acknowledged Zubac's skills, labeling him as one of the most underrated big men in the league.

The Clippers will need to adjust their strategy and depth as they navigate the upcoming weeks without Zubac, who has been a key player for the team.
