Los Angeles, CA – The Clippers' two All-Stars, point guard Chris Paul and forward Blake Griffin, started Friday's Western Conference quarterfinal Game 6 after sustaining lower body injuries in Game 5.
Paul suffered a strained right hip flexor with 5:16 remaining in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's contest against the Grizzlies, while Griffin sprained his left knee with 1:31 remaining in the third. An MRI taken Thursday confirmed that there was no structural damage to Griffin's knee.
Los Angeles leads Memphis, 3-2, in the best-of-seven set and can close out the series with a win in Game 6.
