Clipper coach Mike Dunleavy says Blake Griffin's shoulder should be fine

 

LOS ANGELES — Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy said he doesn't expect Blake Griffin's shoulder injury to have a lingering effect on the No. 1 overall pick in the NBA draft.

 

The club revealed on Wednesday that Griffin has a strained right shoulder that will require three to four weeks of rest. He was hurt in a July 16 summer game against Memphis in Las Vegas and will miss this week's minicamp for USA Basketball.

 

Clippers physician Dr. Steven Shimoyama diagnosed the injury Tuesday and it was confirmed again by Dr. Lewis Yocum in a second examination.

 

"The good news was they never mentioned surgery or any kind of a deal," Dunleavy said Thursday. "That was the first great news.

 

"I'm disappointed to hear anything which puts him on the shelf because of his great work ethic. He had improved so much in the short period of time he was with us prior to going into summer league. But I don't think it'll be a major setback for him at all."
