Marc Gasol scores 22 points, Grizzlies beat Jazz 102-96
SALT LAKE CITY — Even as the Memphis Grizzlies transition under first-year coach David Fizdale, the old guard of Marc Gasol, Mike Conley and Zach Randolph is still leading the way.
Gasol scored a season-high 22 points and the Grizzlies beat the Utah Jazz 102-96 on Monday night.
“I feel like this is the best four quarters we’ve put together,” Fizdale said. “Guys, they want to win. They really want this and we’ve worked really hard over the past couple days to clean things up.”
The Grizzlies used a 9-2 run sparked by Mike Conley’s step-back 3-pointer and a three-point play by Gasol to take a 94-88 lead with 1:25 remaining.
