Grizzlies beat Thunder, tie Rockets atop Southwest

Apr 4, 2015 - 5:51 AM Memphis, TN (SportsNetwork.com) - Jeff Green scored 22 points and the Memphis Grizzlies beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 100-92 on Friday night.

Memphis got its second straight win and tied idle Houston for first place in the Southwest Division and second place in the Western Conference with six games remaining.

Marc Gasol added 19 points in the win, Zach Randolph scored 14, Courtney Lee and Mike Conley added 13 each and Nick Calathes had 10 points to round out a balanced scoring attack.

The Grizzlies shot better than 47 percent from the floor overall, but made just four of their 21 3-point attempts.

"Guys were getting open looks," said Memphis coach David Joerger. "I thought we had a lot of shots that didn't go down that were open, especially 3s."

Enes Kanter had 24 points and 17 rebounds to lead Oklahoma City and Russell Westbrook scored 18.

The Thunder have dropped four of their last five but remain in eighth place in the Western Conference. Their loss clinched the Northwest Division for the Portland Trail Blazers.
