Blake Griffin to Miss Oklahoma Sooners Matchup with Kansas Jayhawks on Monday Night

Blake Griffin will be held out of Monday night’s Big 12 matchup between his #3 Oklahoma Sooners (25-2, 11-1) and the visiting #15 Kansas Jayhawks (22-5, 11-1) as he recovers from a concussion he sustained in Saturday’s loss to the Texas Longhorns.

 

Griffin visited doctors on Monday and the decision to rest the Player of the Year candidate was made.

 

The concussion was sustained in the first half of the Texas game as Griffin took an accidental open hand to the head from Longhorns’ center Dexter Pittman. He played just 11 minutes in the game and the Sooners fell 73-68 as the Longhorns took advantage of Griffin’s absence.

 

Griffin has been averaging 22 points per game while leading the nation with 13.8 rebounds.
