It was revealed Sunday that LA Clippers star Blake Griffin, priced at $9300 in most daily fantasy contests, will be out for Sunday’s game due to a staph infection in his right elbow. He will undergo surgery on Monday. The Clippers play in Oklahoma City at 1 pm EST as a +5 underdog.

The news took many by surprise Sunday with initial reports suggesting he could be benched from anywhere between 4 and 6 weeks. The news is crippling to season-long fantasy owners, many of whom have Griffin as part of their roster.

For the daily fantasy enthusiasts, the news means more minutes for the likes of Glen Davis, a power forward off the bench priced at $3000, and Jamal Crawford at $5200, although all the Clippers should see an uptick in minutes.

Here are your Clippers daily fantasy player salaries for Sunday.

LA Clippers – D. Jordan $7.5K, M. Barnes $3.9K, C. Paul $9.2K, S. Hawes $3K, A. Rivers $3K (Feb 8)
