Out for season
Zubac will miss the rest of the season with a fractured rib, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports Friday.
Analyse
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.

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.
Analyse
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.

Suffers head contusion
Zubac is questionable to return to Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a head contusion.
Analyse
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.

Upgraded to available
Zubac (back) is available for Wednesday's game against Portland.
Analyse
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.

Iffy for Wednesday
Zubac (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Analyse
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, Micah Potter (triceps), Kobe Brown and Jarace Walker would be candidates for increased roles.
17 maart 2026
Good to go Tuesday
Zubac (ankle) has been cleared to play Tuesday against New York.
Analyse
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.
16 maart 2026
Questionable for Tuesday
Zubac (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.
Analyse
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.
15 maart 2026
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.
Analyse
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.
15 maart 2026
Will play Sunday
Zubac (ankle) will play Sunday against the Bucks, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Analyse
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.
14 maart 2026
Questionable for Sunday
Zubac (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bucks.
Analyse
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.
