As they have only won a third of their games, losing six of nine contests, the LA Clippers do not have much chemistry. This is not entirely surprising in a new group. Yet, two players who have been on opposing sidelines up until this season and have shown an exceptional connection are Ivica Zubac and John Collins. Thus, Tyronn Lue leaning on these two to help the Clippers thrive will headline their 2025-26 bounce-back story.
Although one starts, and the other comes off the bench, Lue has sensed some harmony in their time shared. Last night, a nice alley-oop from Collins, in the post area, was thrown to Zubac, which he converted, as expected, in the highly efficient fashion he is known for.
