Performs efficiently off bench Griffin recorded five points (2-2 FG, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one block in 10 minutes in the 74-73 win over Providence on Sunday.
Impact Griffin had an all-around good performance in the win Sunday. The forward once again played his supporting-cast role well. He went perfect from the floor, excluding a single miss from the line and grabbed a handful at the boards. Griffin does not move the ball around much or play aggressive defense, but he does play the paint exceptionally and will continue to be that role moving forward.
