Breaking: Blake Griffin out with hamstring and knee soreness

Welp, the NBA season kicks off in a few hours and the Detroit Pistons are getting things started with the worst possible news — Blake Griffin is out with an injury.

The Detroit Pistons’ start power forward will not travel with the team to Indiana as he continues getting treatment for “left hamstring and posterior knee soreness,” the team announced Tuesday.

The hope is he will be ready for action in the first week of November so ... yeah ... things could be worse. Or this is the first drip, drip, drip of unfortunate medical info and there will be more to come.
