Griffin's Triple-Double Helps Clips Win In 2OT

LOS ANGELES (AP)—Blake Griffin posted his first career triple-double and Eric Gordon scored 32 points to help the Los Angeles Clippers beat the Washington Wizards 127-119 in double-overtime on Wednesday night.

Griffin finished with 33 points, 17 rebounds and 10 assists, and Randy Foye hit a clinching 3-pointer in the final minute for the Clippers, one night after 12-year-old Staples Center hosted its first triple-overtime game—a 139-137 Lakers win over Phoenix.

Wizards guard John Wall tied it at 102 with a running floater over the outstretched arm of 7-footer Chris Kaman with 19 seconds left in the fourth quarter, and Griffin missed a 3-point attempt at the other end with a second on
the clock.

Eric Gordon sent it into a second OT for the Clippers with a 3-pointer out of a timeout with 1.9 seconds left.

Wall led Washington with 32 points and 10 assists.
