Blake Griffin getting a breather Thursday as Pistons visit Kings
Detroit Pistons forward/center Blake Griffin (rest) has been ruled out for Thursday's game versus the Sacramento Kings.
Griffin has just a pair of rebounds over the past two games, so the big man could likely use a breather in the second half of a back-to-back set. Jon Leuer, Langston Galloway, Stanley Johnson, and Luke Kennard all stand to see more opportunity with Griffin unavailable.
Griffin is averaging 42.7 FanDuel points through 38 games. numberFire's models expect him to record 21.5 points, 6.8 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 0.9 steals, 0.5 blocks, and 1.5 3-pointers per contest over the remainder of the season.
