Story summary
- Clippers will receive Pacers' 2026 first-round pick if the lottery puts Indiana at No. 5 or No. 6, a 47.9% chance, after trading center Ivica Zubac for Bennedict Mathurin, Isaiah Jackson and first- and second-round picks.
- Protected from Nos. 1-4 and 10-30, the pick transfers only when Indiana lands at Nos. 5-9.
- A No. 5 or 6 selection would be the Clippers' highest since No. 13 in 2018, with the alternative of receiving Indiana’s unprotected 2031 first-round pick.
