Blake Griffin has had a tremendous season so far in the Sooners, Oklahoma University. Last saturday in Valentine's Day against Texas Tech Red Raiders, his performance was easily regarded as the best one in his career to date. He scored 40 points and got 23 rebounds in only 31 minutes. Due to this performance, naturally he was named the Big 12 Player of the Week for the fifth time this season.
Among all basketball players in NCAA Divisions, he ranks ninth nationally with 22.8 points per games. He is the national leader with 14.2 rebounds per game, though. If he keeps this marvellous performance in the next game against Texas on satuday, he can definitely make his team, the Sooners, be ranked as the No.1 in Associated Press NCAA Rankings again after almost 20 years.
According to some basketball pundits, he is the best prospect among others for being picked as No.1 in the 2009 NBA Drafts. In the meantime, it would be quite charming and exciting if he was selected by Oklahama City Thunder, his home town both in high school and university.
