What Clippers center Ivica Zubac said about his altercation with Spurs second-year star center Victor Wembanyama.

On Wednesday night, the San Antonio Spurs fell even further below the .500 mark on the season as they lost to a veteran Los Angeles Clippers team, 128-116. Victor Wembanyama continues to stuff the stat sheet,

Zubac recorded 21 points (8-16 FG, 5-5 FT), 22 rebounds, three assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 128-116 victory over the Spurs. Zubac's season-high 22 rebounds helped him record his third straight double-double.

If there was any fear about Victor Wembanyama's adjustment to the NBA, it had to do with his frame. Wembanyama is one of the NBA's tallest players at 7-foot-3, but he is very skinny for his height and will almost certainly bulk up with more time in San Antonio's strength and conditioning program.

The Clippers, missing Kawhi Leonard, James Harden, Norman Powell and Ivica Zubac, fall just short against Boston.

Wednesday’s game between the Celtics and Clippers was highly entertaining. Boston required overtime to win despite having Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Derrick White in the lineup. The Clippers were down four starters (James Harden, Norman Powell, Kawhi Leonard, and Ivica Zubac), but the available players didn’t use that as an excuse.

Clippers are holding Kawhi Leonard out on front end of back-to-back tomorrow vs Celtics, and Ivica Zubac (eye) also is not ready to return. All of James Harden, Norman Powell, Kris

and Derrick White in the lineup. The Clippers were down four starters (James Harden, Norman Powell, Kawhi Leonard, and Ivica Zubac), but the available players didn't use that as an excuse.
