The Memphis Grizzlies defeated the Sacramento Kings, 112 - 98, at Golden 1 Center on Saturday afternoon. The Grizzlies (22 - 14) benefited from the return of star point guard Mike Conley, who'd missed the previous two contests with a toe injury. The veteran looked fully healthy and well - rested after his brief layoff, scoring a team - high 22 points on 8 - of - 11 shooting from the field, which included a 3 - of - 5 tally from three - point range. He complemented his offense with eight rebounds, three assists and a block. Memphis had the hot hand overall, posting respective success rates of 51 and 49 percent from the floor and behind the arc. Meanwhile, they played their typically stingy defense, holding the Kings (14 - 19) to 43 percent shooting and inducing 12 turnovers from them. JaMychal Green provided solid support for Conley, going for 18 points, seven rebounds, four assists and a steal. Tony Allen provided 11 points, four boards, an assist and a steal. Chandler Parsons continued his slow journey back to full health, posting seven points, two assists, a rebound and a steal over 16 minutes. Marc Gasol had a particularly quiet effort, amassing just two points on a pair of free throws and adding only two rebounds and two assists over 21 minutes. Zach Randolph co - led the second unit with 14 points, six rebounds and three assists to make up for some of that offensive void, while the ageless Vince Carter matched his point total and supplemented it with three rebounds, a steal and a block. Troy Daniels supplied 11 points in a reserve role as well. DeMarcus Cousins led the way for Sacramento with a game - high 26 points, along with eight assists, four rebounds and five steals. Matt Barnes got the start at small forward and totaled 20 points, eight rebounds and three assists. Darren Collison compiled 16 points, four rebounds and two assists. Anthony Tolliver came off the bench to register 16 points, six rebounds and two assists over 28 minutes. The Grizzlies next head to Los Angeles for a Tuesday evening date with the Lakers, while the Kings travel to Denver to take on the Nuggets on Tuesday night as well.
