NBA superstar Blake Griffin played two seasons of college basketball at which university?

Blake Griffin played two seasons of college basketball at the University of Oklahoma. He suited up for the Oklahoma Sooners during the 2007–08 and 2008–09 seasons before entering the 2009 NBA draft.

Griffin made an immediate impact in Norman. As a freshman, he averaged 14.7 points and 9.1 rebounds per game. His sophomore season was even stronger: he averaged 22.7 points and 14.4 rebounds, led the NCAA in rebounding, and earned consensus first-team All-American honors. Oklahoma also reached the Elite Eight of the 2009 NCAA tournament.

His performance made Griffin the consensus national player of the year and the Big 12 Player of the Year. The Los Angeles Clippers selected him first overall in the 2009 draft. A preseason kneecap injury delayed his NBA debut until the 2010–11 season, when he won Rookie of the Year and became an All-Star.

A common mix-up is confusing Oklahoma with Oklahoma Christian School, where Griffin played high school basketball and won state championships under his father, Tommy Griffin. His college team was the University of Oklahoma’s Sooners, not Oklahoma State or Oklahoma Christian.
