The Memphis Grizzlies (19 - 4) defeated the Philadelphia 76ers (2 - 21) 120 - 115 in overtime on Saturday. Memphis was trailing the first three quarters, and coach Dave Joerger started extending his rotation to try and find a lineup willing to fight against the 76ers' attack. The Grizzlies waited until the fourth quarter to take the Sixers seriously, but in the fourth, Memphis went on a run to win the quarter 41 - 29 to tie the game and force overtime. The Grizzlies then continued their takeover in the extra period, winning overtime 11 - 6 to complete the win. In addition to hitting the game - tying three - pointer to send it to overtime, Mike Conley finished with 36 points in 42 minutes. They have two days off to rest before hosting the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday. Philadelphia has dropped three straight games, but the way the young team played against one of the league's best defenses showed the promise of several of their prospects. Michael Carter-Williams attacked all night, never shying away from playing his game against an opponent that all - but assured the Sixers would take home a loss, collecting his second triple - double of the season (16 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists). Robert Covington attacked the basket off the dribble, challenging the Grizzlies' defense to finish with 24 points, and Hollis Thompson was deadeye from beyond the arc, finishing 5 - of - 5 on his three - point attempts. The Sixers gave the game away with their turnovers, allowing the Grizzlies to score 29 easy points off of 17 Sixers turnovers. Philadelphia will host the Boston Celtics on Monday.
