Blake Griffin (bruised big toe) exited Clippers' game last night

Los Angeles Clippers forward/center Blake Griffin (bruised right big toe) did not return to Friday's game.

What It Means:

The good news is X-rays were negative, so hopefully it's only a day-to-day thing. Griffin himself also reportedly said the injury was worse than he thought, so this could be a multiple-game issue. Marreese Speights started the second half in his stead.

Before his exit, Griffin racked up 11.94 nERD across 18 minutes -- the third-most value among Clips players. Speights earned 3.09 nERD in his own 18 minutes.
