Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Out for season
Zubac will miss the rest of the season with a fractured rib, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports Friday.
Based on the recovery timetable for a fractured rib, the Pacers didn't think Zubac would be 100 percent in time for their remaining regular-season games, and with nothing to play for, they have no incentive to rush him back. Since joining the Pacers, Zubac appeared in just five games with averages of 11.6 points, 7.2 rebounds and 0.8 blocks in 23.6 minutes per contest. The veteran big man should have a relatively healthy offseason and be good to go for training camp next season.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Fails to return from head contusion
Zubac left Wednesday's 127-119 loss to Portland with 10:44 remaining in the fourth quarter due to a head contusion and didn't return. He finished with 18 points (7-18 FG, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one block across 23 minutes.
Zubac was struck in the face and was labeled questionable to return to the contest, but he remained on the bench the rest of the way. Per Tony East of Forbes.com, Zubac said after the game that he's not following concussion protocol, which is an encouraging sign. Zubac will have a few days to recover before Indiana returns to action Saturday in San Antonio.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Suffers head contusion
Zubac is questionable to return to Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a head contusion.
Zubac was hit in the face and promptly went back to the locker room with just under 11 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. The Pacers should provide an update on Zubac before the contest concludes, but it's possible that his night is over. Zubac was listed as questionable heading into Wednesday's game due to low back soreness before he was ultimately cleared to play.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Iffy for Wednesday
Zubac is listed questionable for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers due to low back soreness.
Zubac has appeared in four straight games since making his Pacers debut, including playing both halves of a back-to-back set and notably seeing 29 minutes during the second night. If Zubac is sidelined for the second half of Indiana's current back-to-back set, Jay Huff, Kobe Brown and Micah Potter (triceps) would be candidates for increased roles.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Upgraded to available
Zubac (back) is available for Wednesday's game against Portland.
Despite being regularly included on the injury report, Zubac is suiting up for a fifth consecutive contest. The 29-year-old big man has averaged 10.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 0.8 blocks in 23.8 minutes per contest through four games for the Pacers thus far, during which he has shot 51.4 percent from the floor.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Good to go Tuesday
Zubac (ankle) has been cleared to play Tuesday against New York.
Zubac was added to the injury report as questionable due to a left ankle sprain, but he'll be good to go for Tuesday's clash. He's averaging 9.7 points, 7.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists in his first three games as a Pacer.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Questionable for Tuesday
Zubac (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.
Zubac has played in each of the past three contests but is listed as questionable due to a left ankle sprain that previously sidelined him for 15 games. If he's unable to play, Jay Huff figures to slot into the starting center role and log heavier minutes in the post.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Comes close to double-double
Zubac chipped in 10 points (4-10 FG, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and two assists in 24 minutes during Sunday's 134-123 loss to the Bucks.
Zubac has suited up in three straight games for the Pacers, and while the early numbers haven't been eye-popping, there are some positives to highlight. He's scored in double digits in his past two outings while logging at least 24 minutes, which is an uptick from the 16-minute cameo he made in his season debut against the Suns on Thursday. Zubac should grow more and more comfortable as he gets more minutes under his belt, but he's a risky fantasy option right now. Even if he holds a starting role, the change to a new environment and his lengthy absence mean he likely won't produce at the same rate he did when he was a member of the Clippers, where he also had a more stable offensive role.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Will play Sunday
Zubac (ankle) will play Sunday against the Bucks, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Zubac is set to play in his third consecutive game, and it'll be interesting to see if his playing time continues to rise. He logged 29 minutes during Friday's loss to the Knicks and finished with 11 points, eight rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and two turnovers.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Questionable for Sunday
Zubac (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bucks.
Zubac appeared in each of Indiana's last two outings following a 15-game absence due to a left ankle sprain, though he could be held out of Sunday's game in Milwaukee. If the big man isn't cleared to play, Jay Huff and Micah Potter would likely operate in expanded roles.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Chips in full stat line
Zubac contributed 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 29 minutes during Friday's 101-92 loss to the Knicks.
Zubac made his second appearance for Indiana, and he saw a big jump in playing time after logging only 16 minutes during Thursday's loss to the Suns. The 29-year-old big man's availability might be sporadic for the last-place Pacers down the stretch, but he should remain quite effective when available. Dating back to his time with the Clippers, Zubac has averaged 10.6 points, 9.6 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 26.6 minutes per tilt across his last seven games while shooting a robust 70.5 percent from the field.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Will play Friday
Zubac (ankle) will play Friday versus the Knicks, Jared Schwartz of the New York Post reports.
Zubac was held out of the second half of Thursday's game to have him available for both legs of the back-to-back set, and it'll be interesting to see if he's cleared for both halves Friday evening. With Zubac active, Jay Huff could be relegated to minutes in the teens.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Iffy for Friday
Zubac (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks.
Zubac made his Pacers debut Thursday, posting eight points (4-6 FG), six rebounds and two assists across 16 minutes during the 123-108 loss to the Suns. That was his first appearance since Feb. 2, and the veteran big man will likely be limited for the remainder of the campaign. It's surprising to see him even have a shot to suit up for the second night of Indiana's back-to-back set, but Zubac hardly ever misses time, appearing in at least 68 games in six straight seasons before 2025-26.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Limited impact in Pacers debut
Zubac produced eight points (4-6 FG), six rebounds and two assists across 16 minutes during Thursday's 123-108 loss to the Suns.
Zubac was limited to 16 minutes in his Pacers debut, which had been on hold due to a sprained left ankle, but he made four of his six shots and also looked active on the glass. A 16-minute cameo isn't enough to see what Zubac might bring to the table, especially in a game where Pascal Siakam (knee) didn't play, but Zubac should stay as the Pacers' starter as long as he's healthy. It's unclear if Zubac will be available Friday on the second leg of a back-to-back set against the Knicks.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Getting start in return
Zubac is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against Phoenix, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Zubac will be inserted right into the starting five for his first action since being dealt to Indiana. It's unclear as to how many minutes he may go Thursday, as he's spent a little over a month rehabbing from an ankle injury, but it's a great sign for the Pacers to get him out there on a night where a good chunk of the rotation is sidelined due to injury.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Ready for Pacers debut
Zubac (ankle) will play Thursday against the Suns, Alex Golden of the 'Setting the Pace' podcast reports.
Zubac was upgraded to questionable ahead of Thursday's matchup, and the team has since given him the green light to take the floor for the first time as a member of the Pacers. The big man hasn't appeared in a game since Feb. 2, so it's safe to assume that Indiana will keep a close eye on his minutes until he's acclimated, which will likely take at least a few appearances.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Upgraded to questionable
Zubac (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Phoenix.
Zubac has a chance to make his Pacers debut Thursday, as he's listed as questionable on the injury report for the first time since Feb. 9. The center has been battling a sprained left ankle. If he's able to return, he'd likely have his minutes monitored. However, Zubac's availability would mean fewer opportunities for Jay Huff and Micah Potter.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Won't play Tuesday
Zubac (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Kings.
Zubac has yet to make his Pacers debut due to a sprained left ankle and remains without a definitive timetable for a return. He should be considered doubtful for future contests until Indiana offers an update on his progress.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Remains out for Sunday
Zubac (ankle) is out for Sunday's game versus Portland.
Zubac's debut continues to be put on hold as he recovers from his ankle sprain. The Pacers are being very cautious with their new addition, but recent reports have suggested that he's getting closer.

Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Won't play Friday
Zubac (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Lakers.
Zubac will have to wait at least one more game to make his Pacers debut while recovering from a left ankle sprain. His next chance to do so is Sunday against the Trail Blazers, but there's been no indication that the veteran center will be available for that contest.
