The NBA’s Los Angeles Clippers will host another Croatian Heritage Night on Sunday April 3rd, at 6:30 pm PDT following a successful inaugural event in 2020.
With Croat Ivica Zubac starting at center for the Clippers and a large Croatian community living in Los Angeles, the Clippers are again working with local organization LA Vatreni to organize a gameday celebration of Croatian people and culture.
Over 200 Los Angeles Hrvati attended 2020’s Heritage Night, which included Croatian themed T-shirt giveaways and a halftime kolo performance.
This year, the Clippers will take on the New Orleans Pelicans and ask fans to “wear your checkers” and “show your Croatian pride!”
There will be a pregame gathering in Toms Watch Bar at LA Live and a group photo in front of Crypto.com Arena as well as a post-game Q and A with Croatian star Ivica Zubac.
Discounted tickets to the event can be found here.
