Blake Griffin has hurt his hand in a fight with a member of the Los Angeles Clippers' equipment staff.

Griffin suffered a fracture in his hand and will miss four to six weeks.

Griffin and the equipment staffer got into an argument in a restaurant during the team's trip to Toronto. Griffin hit the man, who then left the restaurant and went outside. Griffin followed him outside and hit him again.

The hand injury is expected to keep Griffin out "a matter of weeks, as opposed to days."

Griffin, who has been out with a quadriceps injury, originally hoped to return to the lineup during this road trip. 

In November 2014, Griffin was charged with one count of misdemeanor battery after allegedly getting into an altercation with a man at a Las Vegas nightclub. 

According to Sam Amick, the altercation was with Matias Testi, who has been close friends with Griffin for years. Griffin and Testi routinely banter back and forth.

Griffin and Testi have both been sent home to Los Angeles.
