The LA Clippers seem to have hit a bump in the road with Ivica Zubac, as the combination of Mike Scotto’s latest report on ‘HoopsHype’ and recent performances implies that the big man is weeks away from a trade. Scotto mentioned that the early-season price on Zubac was two first-round picks for those interested; so far, the top callers have reportedly been the Boston Celtics and Indiana Pacers.
Before Zubac’s injury, the Clippers may have even denied two firsts. They might have looked at the offer, thought it over for a few days, but given his contract value and what he means to the fans, the agreed-upon decision would have been to retain him.
