Griffin is a solid big man who fits naturally at the power forward spot. He can score inside with touch and strength, while also stepping out to face up and attack off the dribble. His willingness to battle around the rim provides steady rebounding presence around the rim.
Developmental Focus: Griffin will benefit from sharpening his back-to-the-basket footwork and embracing a more agile style of play. Adding those elements will round out his skill set and make him a tougher interior presence.

Griffin anchors Sheridan with sturdy rebounding, toughness in the paint, and strong finishes inside. He roams the paint well on both ends, allowing guards to press and wings to gamble, knowing the back line is secure. As Sheridan’s identity leans on Dawson’s best attributes: physicality and defensive control, Griffin’s impact should translate to wins and a strong case for All-Conference.
