The Clippers want you to know Blake Griffin and the staffer he punched are still friends

Los Angeles tweeted a photo of Griffin dapping the trainer involved in the incident that left him with a broken hand.

Two days ago, Blake Griffin issued a public apology to the media about a late-January incident where he punched Clippers assistant trainer Matias Testi and suffered a broken hand. On Thursday, in Los Angeles' first game back since the All-Star break, the Clippers tweeted this photo of the two dapping.

I have no idea if the moment was genuine or not. The two have apparently been longtime friends and Griffin said the two are over the incident. The fact that the Clippers’ official Twitter account sent this out, with the caption “#Family,” makes it feel staged. Either way, this might not be the last moment you see between the two shared publicly.
