Griffin
The Los Angeles Clippers announced on Wednesday that the rookie forward will spend the next three to four weeks resting a strain to his right shoulder. He suffered the injury in the third game of the five-game summer schedule but still went on to be named the league's most outstanding player.
The No. 1 overall pick in June's draft out of Oklahoma averaged 19.2 points and 10.8 rebounds during summer league play.
He was examined on Tuesday by Clippers team physician Dr. Steven Shimoyama. The diagnosis was confirmed by specialist Dr. Lewis Yocum.
The Clippers said that Griffin will not participate in Team USA's minicamp starting Wednesday as a precaution.
