Blake Griffin Pulls Down Season-High 11 Rebounds
5 years agoDetroit Pistons forward Blake Griffin scored 14 points with 11 rebounds, four assists, and a block in a 132-102 win over the Washington Wizards. Griffin struggled from beyond the arc, posting another 0-6 performance, though he salvaged his day with rebounds and assists. The 30-year-old has missed half of the Pistons' games due to a knee injury and hasn't looked good in the games he's been able to play in. He's also played the lowest minutes average of his career, so Detroit has certainly been easing him back into things. Still, Griffin has averaged career-lows pretty much across the board and is frustrating to roster right now. Fantasy owners should see if he can string together some decent performances in the next few games.

Blake Griffin To Start On Monday
2 years agoBoston Celtics forward Blake Griffin will move into the starting five for Monday's game against the Orlando Magic. The Celtics are shorthanded here with both Marcus Smart (ankle) and Robert Williams III (knee) both ruled out. That being said, Griffin will make the start at center, while Derrick White serves as the point guard. White is a solid play with Smart out, while Griffin is going to have his value limited. Both Horford and Grant Williams should see action at center, which is going to limit Griffin's abilities. Fantasy managers should consider Griffin a deep league streaming choice for Monday.

Blake Griffin Moves Into Starting Five On Monday
2 years agoBoston Celtics forward Blake Griffin will move into the starting five for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Veteran big man Al Horford (back) is going to sit this game out, which gives Griffin a chance to start. Despite the move to the starting unit, Griffin doesn't offer a ton of upside in terms of fantasy value. He could be someone worth considering in deep leagues, but won't be asked to do much with a majority of this roster healthy.

Blake Griffin Moves Into Starting Five
2 years agoBoston Celtics forward Blake Griffin will move into the starting five for Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. The Celtics have decided to rest Al Horford (back) after he played 33 minutes during Friday's game. Griffin will take over his spot in the starting five for this contest. The 33-year-old hasn't been very productive through his four appearances with Boston this season. He'll have minimal fantasy value and won't be a recommended streaming option for Saturday's slate.

Blake Griffin Available For Game 3
3 years agoBrooklyn Nets forward Blake Griffin (ankle) is available for Game 3 against the Boston Celtics. The All-Star forward hasn't played this postseason and isn't expected to do much on Saturday. In fact, Griffin has played a total of six minutes over the last 11 games. It's unlikely that head coach Steve Nash decides to change his gameplan now. Griffin should have a minimal role off the bench, assuming he plays at all. Fantasy managers can ignore him right now.
