NBA Daily Notes: The Lakers lose again; Top fantasy picks for January 7th

PF 1 - Blake Griffin (Detroit Pistons)

The Detroit Pistons are a team that has been struggling for quite a few games, unable to find a rhythm. They are now in the 9th place in the Eastern Conference with a 17-20 record. They have won only 3 of their last 10 games and have to get something going for them if they want to get back to the playoffs. One player who is trying his best to make this happen is Blake Griffin.

Detroit Pistons are not playing well lately

Griffin has been playing some really great basketball this season, a throwback to his dominant years. He has even become an elite playmaker and 3-point shooter, making him even more versatile. He is averaging 25 points per game, with just under 9 rebounds per match and more than 5 assists each game. In the loss against the Utah Jazz, Griffin played really well, scoring 34 points, along with 10 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals, almost getting a win but it wasn't meant to be. The Pistons will be hoping Griffin keeps his form up against the San Antonio Spurs tomorrow.

Alternate pick: LaMarcus Aldridge (San Antonio Spurs)
