Clippers Set Steep Price as Ivica Zubac Draws Leaguewide Trade Interest

Front-office exploration follows a poor start with internal turbulence.

Overview

  • Multiple teams have contacted Los Angeles about Ivica Zubac, who is viewed as the club’s most in-demand player, per recent reporting.
  • If the Clippers entertain offers, the expectation from league reporting is a return of at least two first-round picks for Zubac.
  • The team is described as open to deals involving John Collins and his expiring $26.6 million contract.
  • President Lawrence Frank publicly backed Tyronn Lue, saying the head coach will remain in his role for a long time.
  • A 5–16 start, low efficiency ratings, and fallout from Chris Paul’s brief, contentious stint are shaping urgency for roster decisions.
