VIDEO: Kermit the Frog introduces Blake Griffin back to lineup
Los Angeles Clippers fans aren't the only ones excited to have power forward Blake Griffin back.
The five-time All-Star returned to the Clippers lineup Sunday, much to the delight of the one and only Kermit the Frog, after elbow surgery for a staph infection sidelined him for 15 games.
Kermit had the honors of introducing the team's leading scorer in front of a packed house at Staples Center ahead of the matinee contest against the Houston Rockets. He didn't hold back his enthusiasm, either.

And Kermit got to hang out with some of the Clippers players before the contest, too.

Not a bad way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
