Center Ivica Zubac is available to return for the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday night for a home matchup against the Boston Celtics after missing the last five games of the team’s season-best six-game winning streak with a left ankle sprain.
Zubac is averaging 15.6 points with 11.1 rebounds over 28 games (all starts) this season. He was not included on the team’s latest injury report.
The ankle injury occurred during the Clippers’ 103-88 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Dec. 20, and Zubac has not played since then as the team has revived its season after winning just six times over the first 27 games.
