Tyus Jones and De'Anthony Melton added 12 points each as the
Grizzlies won without starting guards Ja Morant and Dillon
Brooks, who are in COVID-19 protocol. Brooks was a late scratch
after playing Wednesday.
The Grizzlies have won six of their last seven games, all since
Morant originally went to the sideline last month with a left
knee sprain.
LeBron James scored 20 points with 10 rebounds and 11 assists
for the Lakers to record the 100th triple-double of his career.
Anthony Davis had 22 points with eight rebounds for Los Angeles,
which is just 3-5 on the road since Nov. 1.
Spurs 123, Nuggets 111
Derrick White poured in 23 points and Lonnie Walker IV added 21
off the bench as San Antonio rolled over visiting Denver.
Dejounte Murray added 20 points for the Spurs, with Doug
McDermott hitting for 17 and Drew Eubanks scoring 14.
Denver's Nikola Jokic had 22 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists,
recording his second consecutive triple-double and his fifth in
20 games this season. Aaron Gordon led all scorers with 25
points, and Will Barton added 19.
Jazz 118, 76ers 96
Donovan Mitchell scored 22 points, and Rudy Gobert had 17 points
and 21 rebounds as Utah beat host Philadelphia.
Hassan Whiteside contributed 14 points and 10 rebounds, Bojan
Bogdanovic had 14 points, and Joe Ingles and Jordan Clarkson
chipped in with 11 each for the Jazz, who won their sixth in a
row. Mike Conley and Rudy Gay had 10 points apiece.
Joel Embiid led the 76ers with 19 points and nine rebounds, but
he appeared to be hampered by an apparent rib injury in the
second half. Seth Curry scored 18 points, Tobias Harris added 17
and Tyrese Maxey had 11 for the 76ers, who had their three-game
winning streak snapped.
