Ivica Zubac and the Clippers agreed to a $58.6-million, three-year contract extension that will keep him with the team through the 2027-28 season, agent Jeff Schwartz of Excel said Saturday.

Zubac averaged a career-high 11.7 points and 9.2 rebounds last season, when the 27-year-old center shot 65% from the field. He averaged 16.2 points in the Clippers’ loss to Dallas over six games of the Western Conference playoffs.

The legislation would allow exclusive members of pricy private suites at the Intuit Dome arena the ignore California law that prohibits the sale of alcohol after 2 a.m.

He had one year and $11.7 million remaining on his current deal. Zubac, who was traded from the Lakers in February 2019, is the longest-tenured Clipper as the team prepares to play its first season in its new arena in Inglewood.
