Lakers' Larry Nance: Earns start Saturday vs. Clippers

Nance will be in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Clippers, Mark Medina of the L.A. Daily News reports.

Analysis:

Nance will draw the start in place of the injured Ivica Zubac, who has been ruled out for the remainder of the season due to a right high-ankle sprain. Nance has played at least 24 minutes in each of the Lakers' past four contest, so expect around 30 minutes from the big man alongside fellow forward Julius Randle as Tarik Black and Thomas Robinson are slated to come off the bench.
