Celtics, Pacers Linked to ClippersIvica Zubac as Price Set at Two Firsts

Los Angeles’ recent surge has cooled talks.

Overview

  • HoopsHype’s Michael Scotto reported that Boston and Indiana have explored trading for the Clippers center.
  • Trade buzz peaked after Los Angeles opened 6-21 and quieted after the team won seven of eight games.
  • During earlier inquiries, league sources indicated it would take at least two first-round picks for the Clippers to consider moving Zubac.
  • Zubac is averaging roughly 15 points and 11 rebounds this season and earned All-Defensive Second Team honors last year.
  • Boston’s thin center rotation makes a defensive, reliable big appealing, and the Pacers are seeking a replacement for Myles Turner.
