What It Means:
It was a quintessential "Revenge Game" for Griffin in his first career matchup against the Clippers at Staples Center, scoring at least 40 points for the second time this season. He was locked in and well-rested after getting a breather on Thursday in the second end of a back-to-back set. The Clippers visit the Utah Jazz on Monday.
