Los Angeles Clippers star Blake Griffin got some serious air while throwing down a monster one-handed slam dunk in the first quarter of Tuesday night's game against the Houston Rockets. When a bad pass by the Rockets was thrown backwards into their own end of the court, Griffin won the footrace and didn't even have to dribble before slamming it home. Griffin finished with 19 points and 8 assists to lead the Clippers to a 117-109 victory. H/T TNLP. Visit us at holdoutsports.com and follow us on Twitter @HoldoutSports.

All he did last night in Paul’s stead was drop 14/3/4 with 2 steals in 28 minutes as the Clips blew out Memphis. Assuming the game is more competitive tonight I’d expect Eric to be closer to 35 minutes...
