Griffin could have played this season if he wanted to. League sources say that the Boston Celtics wanted him back for another run after Griffin’s welcome contributions in 2022-23 and, given the state of the Celtics these days, that very well might have led to a long-awaited championship ring for the longtime dunker supreme.

More on this storyline
Now to see if Griffin and the Clippers eventually reach common ground on a reconciliation to the point where his No. 32 will be retired by the franchise. I think it will happen someday and frankly it has to happen someday because of what Griffin meant to this franchise and its fan base. No one was more important than Griffin, in the Lob City days, in helping the Clippers shed their local afterthought status. However … They’re not there yet. My sense is that some fence-mending is still needed. You just don’t get over a break-up like that. -via marcstein.substack.com / April 23, 2024
