The 2024-25 NBA season has been a massive coming-out party for Ivica Zubac. Throughout the entire season, he’s played like an All-Star, the NBA’s Most Improved Player, and like an NBA All-Defensive First-Team player.
On Saturday night against the Dallas Mavericks, the Clippers’ big man made history in a dominant performance. Zubac put up 25 points, 10 rebounds, and 2 assists on a perfect 11/11 shooting from the field.
According to Stat Mamba, Ivica Zubac became the first player in NBA history to put up 25 points and 10 rebounds without any turnovers or misses.
