Regular Season Round 113: Minnesota T. - LA Clippers 90-98

Date: February 16, 2011
Blake Griffin appeared to be starting his first All-Star weekend in style, with a 29-point, eight-rebound, five-assist thrashing of Western Conference teammate Kevin Love in the Los Angeles Clippers' 98-90 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday night. When reporters entered the locker room after the game, Griffin was anything but jubilant. His head was in his hands after receiving a phone call and he was sobbing. Griffin, who is scheduled to compete in the slam dunk contest on Saturday in Los Angeles, did not speak to reporters after the game, with a team spokesman calling it an unspecified personal issue. Former Timberwolves Randy Foye scored 21 points and Ryan Gomes added 18 to help the Clippers to just their second win of an eight-game road trip. "Considering where we're at healthwise, considering the length of the trip, considering everything thrown at us, we'll take the win tonight and focus on the improvements we made tonight," Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro said. Love had 18 points and 18 rebounds for his 42nd double-double in a row. But he was slowed in the second quarter after briefly leaving with a right shoulder injury and didn't have near the impact of Griffin, who will play with Love on Sunday in Los Angeles. *Courtesy of www.cbsnews.com
