After missing the first 10 games of the year, Detroit Pistons All-Star forward Blake Griffin is planning to make his season debut on Monday in the Pistons’ matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

The 30-year-old Griffin has been rehabbing a sore knee and hamstring since the preseason. Detroit was 4-6 in his absence.

Last season, Griffin made the All-Star team for time since 2014-15. He averaged 24.5 points, 7.5 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game, taking home third-team All-NBA honors. As a team, Detroit finished as the No. 8 seed in the Eastern Conference.

Tipoff for Griffin’s debut on Monday is set for 7 p.m. ET.
