Ivica Zubac

This has been a career year for Zubac, who deserves to be included in Most Improved Player conversations. The Clippers center recorded his 53rd double-double of the season on Wednesday, and the six assists were the most in a game for him since March 16. Over the past two weeks, Zubac has provided fourth-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats. The Clippers play two games against the Mavericks to end Week 22, and those matchups may be more challenging since Daniel Gafford and Dereck Lively II have rejoined the Dallas rotation.

Zubac closed out the month with his second game in March with at least 20 rebounds. He even played 38 minutes on the second night of a back-to-back to get there. The 28-year-old center had 18 points on 10 shots and dished out five assists on the offensive end. The Clippers have three more games this week with a matchup against the Pelicans set for Wednesday.

Zubac did not miss a shot from the field on Friday, the first time this season that he has accomplished that feat. As good as the Clippers center has been, he's recently taken things to another level, providing third-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. Even better for the Clippers is that Zubac only needed to play 25 minutes in Friday's 32-point victory. On Sunday, he'll face a significant test when the Clippers visit the Cavaliers.

Another game, another double-double for Big Zu, who has recorded one in five consecutive outings. Over the past two weeks, the Clippers center has offered top-50 value in eight-cat formats. Zubac has been one of the most pleasant surprises in fantasy basketball, taking advantage of a role that expanded when Paul George left for Philadelphia. He'll look to end Week 21 on a high when the Clippers visit Brooklyn on Friday and Cleveland two nights later.

Zubac has only failed to record a double-double twice since the All-Star break, as he continues to provide reliable (and excellent) value to fantasy managers. Over the past two weeks, the Clippers center has been a third-round player in eight-cat formats. Zubac will look to add another double-double to his tally on Thursday when the Clippers open a three-game week against the Knicks.
