Ivica Zubac has taken a step forward this season with the LA Clippers. He took his conditioning seriously this summer and has come into the year looking stronger, leaner, and faster. The eye test says that when Zubac plays, he has been an imposing force defensively, and a solid pick and roll partner with Kawhi Leonard.
His counting stats, however, do not jump off the page. So far this season, Zu is averaging 9.6 points, 6.8 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per contest. His advanced stats, on the other hand, are extremely impressive.
Zubac currently has a net rating (the difference between offensive rating and defensive rating) of +41.
