Los Angeles Clippers power forward Blake Griffin (rest) and center DeAndre Jordan (rest) will both sit out Thursday's road game against the Denver Nuggets.
This will be the second half of a back-to-back for the Clippers, and with the playoffs looming they will avoid pushing their starting frontcourt too hard. Look for Marreese Speights and Brandon Bass to both see a significant increase in minutes, while Chris Paul's usage rate will likely be through the roof tonight.
Jordan's 9.7 nERD (15th) and Griffin's 4.8 nERD (39th) both rank inside the NBA's top-40.
