Blake Griffin As Mars Blackmon Nike Basketball Photo Shoot 1

Especially since his breakout performance at the 2011 NBA All-Star, there’s been a bunch of buzz surrounding Los Angeles Clippers rookie forward Blake Griffin. Many assume it’s only a matter of time before Blake gets his own signature sneaker and we’ve seen a few Nike Air Max Fly By PEs since then, but is it possible he could end up rocking the Jumpman? Check out these photos of ‘Blakeman’ doing his best Spike Lee impersonation and reminding us of another young dunk contest champion who went on to rewrite all the rules. Griffin was joined by the soon-to-be-drafted USC TE Jordan Cameron for a Nike photo shoot in LA and while video is sure to be coming along soon, click through to see Blake Griffin as Mars Blackmon and let us know if he’d be a good fit with Jordan Brand.
