Efficient in blowout win Zubac amassed 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 22 minutes during Wednesday's 126-67 victory over the Nets.

Impact Zubac was efficient and filled the stat sheet admirably, ending just one rebound shy of recording yet another double-double despite logging just 22 minutes. The low minute total is directly tied to the nature of the game, so Zubac should handle his regular workload when the Clippers take on the Trail Blazers on Thursday in the second leg of a back-to-back set.

Comes close to double-double Zubac provided 10 points (2-4 FG, 6-7 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one block across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 126-103 loss to Denver.

Impact Zubac didn't have his best scoring performance, at least when comparing it to the numbers he's posted in recent weeks, but he still made his presence on the glass after ending just two boards shy of a double-double. The veteran big man is enjoying a career-best campaign and remains a threat to record a double-double every time he steps on the hardwood. On that note, Zubac has 10 double-doubles across his last 13 appearances dating back to Dec. 8.

Posts massive double-double Zubac totaled 17 points (7-11 FG, 3-3 FT), 16 rebounds, two assists, six blocks and one steal across 35 minutes during Monday's 108-106 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Zubac racked up his 24th double-double of the campaign and was everywhere on defense -- he recorded at least six blocks for the third time in his career, finishing one block shy of his career-best mark (7). He's been outstanding this season and is on pace to return sixth-round value in nine-category formats.

Logs massive double-double in win Zubac racked up 18 points (9-11 FG, 0-1 FT), 18 rebounds, four assists and one block over 32 minutes during Saturday's 131-105 victory over the Hawks.

Impact Zubac continues to be one of the most dependable big men in the league, and he's managed to stay off the injury report despite working through the highest usage of his career. Zubac now logs 30-plus minutes with regularity, which is a definite change for the veteran after platooning for the Clippers over his seven-year tenure with the team. Zubac has recorded wight double-doubles over his past 10 games and now has 23 double-doubles for the season.

Narrowly misses double-double Zubac finished Thursday's 116-98 loss to Oklahoma City with 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 FT), nine rebounds and two assists across 23 minutes.

Impact After scoring just five points in Tuesday's blowout loss to the Spurs, Zubac fell one board shy of his 23rd double-double of the campaign, although he likely would have attained that feat had Thursday's contest been more competitive. Over his last 10 contests, the veteran big man is averaging 16.0 points, 12.9 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.1 blocks and 1.0 blocks and is shooting 62.4 percent from the field. Zubac has been a steal thus far for fantasy managers who selected him in the later rounds of drafts this past fall, and the 27-year-old should remain a force when it comes to swats and boards while producing a high field-goal percentage.

Held in check Zubac provided five points (2-7 FG, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds and two assists in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 122-86 loss to San Antonio.

Impact To be fair to Zubac, the matchup with Victor Wembanyama is as tough as it gets and this was the second leg of a back-to-back set. Plus, Zubac has been playing through a mild calf injury. He's had a tremendous season so far and fantasy managers can just chalk this up as a rare dud.

Posts massive line Zubac accumulated 20 points (9-13 FG, 2-5 FT), 16 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 36 minutes during Monday's 116-113 victory over the Pelicans.

Impact This was just another day at the office for Zubac as he continued his breakout season. Through 32 games, he's on pace to return seventh-round value in nine-category leagues with averages of 15.4 points, 12.7 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.1 blocks on 61.7 percent shooting from the field.
