NBA Daily Notes: Paul George - MVP? ; Top fantasy picks for December 23rd

PF 2 - Blake Griffin (Detroit Pistons):

The Detroit Pistons had a great start to their 2018-19 NBA season but have since fallen off a cliff. They have fallen to the 7th spot in the Eastern Conference, with a 15-15 record, having lost 8 of their last 10 matches.

Their last game was a 98-86 loss to the Charlotte Hornets and it is not helping their cause that they keep losing every alternate game. A shining light this season for the Pistons has been their forward, Blake Griffin.

Detroit Pistons have been really bad of late

Griffin has been playing really well to begin the 2018-19 NBA season, averaging just under 26 points per game this season, along with 9 rebounds and 5 assists as well. Griffin has scored more than 20 points in 9 out of his last 10 matches, which is a really impressive feat.

He has also not missed a lot of games due to injuries, which has made him a very valuable player for the Pistons. In the loss against the Hornets, Griffin scored a nice 23 points, with 7 rebounds, 5 assists and a block to go with it.

With a game against the lowly Atlanta Hawks tomorrow, hopefully Griffin can get the Pistons back to winning ways.

Alternate pick: Thaddeus Young (Indiana Pacers)
