Blake Griffin will miss his second consecutive game for the Detroit Pistons.

As the Pistons prepare for a home matchup versus their division rivals, the Chicago Bulls, they'll have to do so without their All-Star forward. That would be because according to Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official website, Griffin will miss his second consecutive game.

The 30-year-old veteran also missed Friday's loss to the Boston Celtics.

Griffin has been dealing with knee issues as of late — which was the reason he missed Friday's game versus the Celtics.

The hope was that with the Pistons playing a back-to-back set and with Griffin missing Friday's contest, the big man would be good to go for Saturday's matchup versus the Bulls. Obviously, that isn't the case and the veteran will miss his 12th game of the season.

Griffin had missed the beginning of the season due to hamstring/posterior and knee soreness. He missed the team's first nine games and has appeared in just 15 games this season. The 6-foot-10 big man is averaging 16.3 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game — significant declines from his per-game career averages of 21.7 points, 8.9 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game.

The Pistons will hope for Griffin's return when they host the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night.
