The Los Angeles Clippers have reportedly agreed to
trade superstar forward Blake Griffin to the Detroit
Pistons.
Griffin took to Twitter to react to the news, sharing
much of the shock that NBA fans were also feeling.
The Clippers and Pistons are set to
play in less than two weeks, setting up for an awkward
reunion.
The Los Angeles Clippers reportedly
agreed to trade star forward Blake Griffin to the Detroit
Pistons on Monday night in exchange for Tobias
Harris, Avery Bradley, and Boban Marjanovic, as well as a first-
and a second-round draft pick.
The Clippers are said to also be sending Brice Johnson
and Willie Reed to Detroit as a part of the deal.
The deal came as a shock to NBA fans, as Blake Griffin
had signed a five-year, $171 million extension with the Clippers
just last year. Apparently, the news was quite shocking to
Griffin as well, as the All-Star forward took to Twitter to
seemingly express his reaction to the surprising
news.
Around Twitter, NBA fans were sharing reactions of their own to
the deal that marks the end of an era for the Clippers.
