Blake Griffin resting for Nets Wednesday in back-to-back against 76ers
Brooklyn Nets forward/center Blake Griffin (left knee - injury management) will not play Wednesday against the Philadelphia 76ers.
What It Means:
Griffin will take a seat after playing close to 25 minutes on Tuesday. The Nets will also be without Kevin Durant (rest), LaMarcus Aldridge (illness), and Chris Chiozza (hand) on the second night of a back-to-back. Kyrie Irving should do most of the heavy-lifting on offense and there will be more minutes available for Jeff Green and Nic Claxton in the frontcourt.
numberFire’s models project Kyrie for 52.1 FanDuel points versus the 76ers and he has a salary of $9,900 on Wednesday.
