Blake Griffin's layups aren't usually highlight-reel worthy. But this and-one layup (see the video after the jump) definitely is. Of course, Griffin was trying to dunk but had lost control of the ball. Griffin's hustle play -- diving for the ball and making the save -- also made the cut.
Griffin finished the Clippers' 107-94 win over the Utah Jazz with 18 points, seven rebounds, three assists, a steal and a block. Oh, and a highlight dunk, too.
