Hits and Flops: Miami Heat vs Detroit Pistons

Hit: Blake Griffin

Blake Griffin is recording career-high averages this season.

Griffin is the only Piston averaging above 17 points per game this season, as his average stands at a career-high 25.7 ppg at the moment. For this game in particular, his resilience to take the early hit of Drummond's departure and still will his side to a win was worth applauding.

Griffin finished with a game-high total of 32 points, along with 11 rebounds and nine assists to lead the charge in an imposing show of mental and physical strength. He has been averaging almost 30 points across the last ten games, with this being his third 30+ point showcase in the previous four games.

Although he missed six of nine attempts from distance, the 11-year veteran finished just one shy of a triple-double, shooting a decent 10-of-24 on the night.

Blake is averaging a career-high 25.7 points per game in a somewhat breakout debut season with the Pistons right now.
