Ivica Zubac starting for Clippers Thursday; Nicolas Batum back to bench
Los Angeles Clippers center Ivica Zubac is in the lineup Thursday in the team's game against the Utah Jazz.
What It Means:
In Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals, the Clippers are shaking up the lineup. Ivica Zubac is moving back into a starting role down low after being demoted midway through the previous series. And Nicolas Batum, who was elevated to the first unit, will revert back to a bench role.
Our models project Zubac for 5.6 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 17.0 FanDuel points across 19.7 minutes of action.
