Los Angeles (AFP) - The Los Angeles Clippers said Sunday that power forward Blake Griffin has been medically cleared to play and will begin serving his four-game suspension as of the night's NBA game against Denver.
Griffin has missed the past 41 games with a partially torn left quadriceps tendon and a broken right hand suffered in January when he punched Clippers equipment staffer Matias Testi.
The team banned him four games for that incident, but the punishment didn't kick in while he was sidelined by injury.
