Ivica Zubac hammered the league’s best defense for a career-high 26 points. He battled some of the fiercest rebounders for 12 boards. And his favorite play of the night was … a pass.
Up by five in overtime, Zubac rolled to the rim and was immediately greeted by an Oklahoma City defender. The big man read the play perfectly, knowing without looking that this meant Brandon Ingram was wide open along the baseline for the game-sealing slam.

While that assist may have been Zubac’s headiest play of the Lakers’ comeback over OKC, he did his most damage by getting on the scoreboard and the glass.
