Episode notes
Brook Lopez Adds True Center Depth
- Adding Brook Lopez gives the Clippers true backup center depth and reduces single-player dependency.
- That likely trims Ivica Zubac's minutes slightly but keeps him a primary interior piece.
Doubles At Center Are Situational
- Ty Lue's small-ball preferences make regular Lopez-Zubac lineups unlikely despite occasional usages.
- Both are drop-coverage bigs, so playing them together creates defensive spacing and mobility concerns.
Zubac's Minutes Likely Trimmed
- Zubac's minutes likely drop from last season's 33 to around 29–31 per game with Lopez present.
- Fans may resist reduced minutes because Zubac represents the Clippers' most consistent building-block big.
