Coming off bench in return
Zubac will come off the bench against the Celtics on Saturday, Mark Medina of TheSportingTribune.com reports.
Analyse
Zubac was cleared to return from a five-game absence due to a Grade 2 ankle sprain, well ahead of schedule given the nature of his injury. He won't be rushed back to a full workload and will operate on a minutes restriction off the bench, so Brook Lopez will likely remain in the starting lineup and Yanic Konan Niederhauser should also see some minutes in the rotation.

Cleared to play Saturday
Zubac (ankle) will be available for Saturday's game against the Celtics, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Analyse
Zubac is ahead of schedule in his rehab from a Grade 2 left ankle sprain he sustained in a win over the Lakers on Dec. 20 and will suit up Saturday following a five-game absence. The veteran center was just recently cleared to return to on-court activities, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him operate under a minutes restriction against Boston. Still, his return will leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Brook Lopez and Yanic Konan Niederhauser.

Progressing in recovery
Zubac (ankle) has progressed enough in his recovery to participate in on-court activities, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.
Analyse
Zubac suffered a Grade 2 left ankle sprain against the Lakers on Dec. 20. It's an injury that typically takes at least three weeks to recover from, so the veteran center should be re-evaluated by medical staff in mid-January, at which point the Clippers will have a clearer idea of when Zubac can return to the lineup. Brook Lopez will likely continue to start at center for the Clippers for as long as Zubac is on the shelf.
