I do not understand why the clippers start Zubac over Plumlee. Do NBA contracts guarantee some players a minimum amount of play time? (alien.top)

Even as a laker fan i never thought Zubac was a great player like they kept painting him as. While he has occasional great performances he just does not bring anything more than offense. I've been a huge fan of plumlee since his stint with the nuggets and think he is a very underrated center. This isn't about my favor of Plumlee. I think he's a solid 6th man. I just don't think Zubac is any better than a scoring center off the bench.

Zubac is the much better defender and Plumlee is himself basically a playmaking/creating offensive center off the bench that's mobile. Plumlee statistically is one of the weakest centers in the league in FG% allowed at the rim and Zubac is statistically one of the better centers. You're very wrong on your analysis....Zubac has consistently been a strong presence for the Clips in terms of their team defense and net rating.
