Shared this with @followAdamA pregame but spoke to Zu after his pregame workout tonight — told me earlier last week that he had a target game for his return that he did not want to disclose at the time.
The target game was indeed against Bam Adebayo and the Miami Heat, per Zu – 7:15 PM

Had to give Quin Snyder a nod for the red frames, I got mine today 😄
anyways…
Only 3 teams allow more 3s per game than Hawks. And only 2 teams see foes shoot a higher % from 3 than Hawks.
But Snyder echoes many coaches by connecting 3-point defense to the paint. pic.twitter.com/tJKBfZDKk06:56 PM

Tyronn Lue pregame at Atlanta — discussed elements include:
– Zubac out
– defending Trae Young
– James Harden’s minutes (won’t play as much as Miami, which is good considering Harden played 41:38 Sunday night) pic.twitter.com/9r6nNgKJXS6:51 PM

Tune into the @YESNetwork Brooklyn Nets pregame show 6:30-7:30 ET. I’ll join @Meghan_Triplett to discuss trade talks regarding Dorian Finney-Smith, Royce O’Neale and Spencer Dinwiddie, Nic Claxton’s free agency, Mikal Bridges and Ben Simmons. Plus, trade talks on Dejounte Murray. pic.twitter.com/9o09SkPsqv6:32 PM

Tyronn Lue confirms that Ivica Zubac is fine, just out to be safe as expected – 6:03 PM
Kevin Chouinard @KLChouinard
In discussing Onyeka Okongwu, Quin Snyder noted his improved ability to stay out of foul trouble. OO has had a good couple of weeks in that regard. – 5:55 PM

Atlanta Hawks will have both De’Andre Hunter and Saddiq Bey tonight vs LA Clippers after both were listed as questionable yesterday – 5:49 PM

Kevin Chouinard @KLChouinard
For tonight’s game vs. LA Clippers:
Saddiq Bey (left ankle sprain) is available.
De’Andre Hunter (right knee injury management) is available.
Clint Capela (left adductor strain) is out.
Mouhamed Gueye (right low back stress fracture) is out. – 5:30 PM
Janis Carr @janiscarr
Clippers now reporting that Zubac is OUT for tonight’s game at Atlanta. – 5:16 PM
Kevin Chouinard @KLChouinard
I suspect that IF Saddiq Bey plays, we will see:
Bey guarding Kawhi
Jalen guarding PG13
Dejounte guarding Harden
but we shall see. – 5:16 PM
Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Ivica Zubac has been ruled out with a calf strain for tonight’s second of a back-to-back for the Clippers against Atlanta. – 5:15 PM

Clippers say that Ivica Zubac (right calf strain) is OUT tonight. – 5:14 PM

Clippers only loss on this road trip was at Cleveland, where Donovan Mitchell put up double digit buckets and dimes
well, Trae Young is averaging 10.5 made FGs and 11.5 assists during 4-game ATL win streak.
If Clippers are going to blitz him, they better do it better than this. pic.twitter.com/5W1CJtfzLB4:33 PM

Kawhi has been named Western Conference Player of the Week, the first time he has earned that honor in a Clippers uniform.
In four games last week, he averaged 29.8 pts, 8.0 rebs, while shooting 100% from the free throw line. – 3:39 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Wrote BEFORE the road trip @TheAthletic how complete Kawhi Leonard’s game has been. He has been knocking at the door for his first Player of the Week award of the season. But as MVP as on court Kawhi has been, locker room Kawhi has been critical as well

Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Kawhi Leonard has been named Western Conference Player of the Week. Clippers went 3-1 and Leonard averaged 29.8 points, 8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2 steals, while shooting 56.6% from the field, 48% from three-point range and 100% from free-throw line. – 3:32 PM
