Clippers' Blake Griffin (knee) will be game-time decision Saturday

Los Angeles Clippers forward/center Blake Griffin (sore right knee) will be a game-time decision to face the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday.

What It Means:

Griffin had swelling issues in the same knee just a few weeks ago. Expect him to sit Saturday to allow for a full four days of rest before Monday's contest against the Portland Trail Blazers. DeAndre Jordan erupted for 21 points and 23 rebounds the last time Griffin sat.

Griffin owns a 3.1 nERD this season, second to only Chris Paul (6.0) on the Clippers' roster. As a team, they rank second in numberFire's NBA Team Power Rankings.
