The Memphis Grizzlies (17 - 4) defeated the Dallas Mavericks (16 - 7) 114 - 105 on Tuesday at Fed Ex Forum Arena in Memphis. Despite being out - scored 62 - 56 in the first half, the Grizzlies came out hot in the third quarter and scored 19 more points than the Mavericks, setting them up for the victory in front of their home crowd. Memphis was able to use their superior shooting to give them the advantage, which was just enough to secure the win. The Grizzlies were led by the duo of Marc Gasol and Mike Conley. Gasol had a game - high of 30 points (9 - 14 FG), while also contributing six assists and five rebounds. He was able to get to the free throw line a wopping 13 times, and converted on 12 out of those attempts. Conley on the other hand shot 9 - for - 13 from the field and 2 - for - 4 from the three - point line to score 22 points. He continued to shoot well after not missing a shot on Sunday against the Miami Heat. He's now averaging 17 points and 6 assists per game. Zach Randolph also had a big impact and scored 17 points (6 - 18 FG, 5 - 6 FT), to go along with 13 rebounds. It marked his twelth double - double of the year. Both Tayshaun Prince and Beno Udrih reached double figures off the bench with 11 and 10 points respectively. Chandler Parsons continued his hot shooting for the Mavericks. He went 10 - for - 18 from the field and 6 - for - 10 from beyond the arc to score a team - high of 30 points, while also grabbing seven rebounds. He's now combined for 58 points and 12 rebounds in the last two games, as he continued with his offensive momentum. Jameer Nelson also had a nice game from the floor, shooting 6 - for - 9 from the field and 4 - for - 6 from the three - point line to score 18 points. Nelson had scored a combined seven points over his last two outings, so he was due for a breakout game. Monta Ellis had been on fire over the last week or so, but really struggled with his shot against the Grizzlies and finished with only two points (1 - 11 FG, 0 - 3 3Pt). Both Jae Crowder and Jose Barea had decent games off the bench with 13 and 17 points apiece. The Grizzlies' next game will be at home against the Charlotte Hornets on Friday, while the Mavericks will be at home against the New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday.
