Points Gets Memphis In Miller

Basketball Betting Lines

The Kings, losers of three straight, were led by rookie Jimmer Fredette's 19 points. DeMarcus Cousins finished with 17 and 15 rebounds and Isaiah Thomas chipped in 16 points.

 

On Wednesday, the Kings proved much easier fare. The Nuggets led 32-26 after the first quarter and 66-43 at the half behind 21 points from Gallinari. They scored all 28 of their third-quarter points in the paint, as the advantage grew to as many as 32.

 

Game Notes

 

Gallinari joined the Nuggets last season in a blockbuster trade that sent Anthony and Chauncey Billups to the New York Knicks...Denver reserve center Kosta Koufos, who came over from Minnesota in the aforementioned three-team trade, also inked an extension with the Nuggets on Wednesday...Denver has won four straight over the Kings.

 

Monta Ellis scored just four points, 19 below his season average, but dished out 12 assists in the victory.

 

Portland was on top at halftime, 53-48, but Curry went off for 16 points in the third, including six on a quarter-ending 10-3 run that gave the hosts a 79-73 advantage.

 

The Blazers led by as many as 10, 22-12, in the first frame, but the Warriors drained three three-pointers during a 12-1 run that gave them the lead.

 

Batum's three-point play in the final minute gave Portland a 26-24 heading to the second, which featured seven ties and three lead changes.

 

Portland has dropped 12 of its past 13 visits to Oracle Arena...Ellis shot 2- of-9 from the floor...Portland won the battle on the glass, 43-30...The Warriors had 33 assists on 41 made field goals.

 

Marc Gasol had an off night, ending with seven points, four rebounds and three assists for the Grizzlies, who shot 37.8 percent and were outrebounded by a 50-39 margin. Memphis also sank just 3-of-14 three-pointers and was averaging 102.0 points during the win streak.

 

Memphis is also 9-4 since All-Star forward Zach Randolph went down on January 1 with a torn MCL. Randolph is expected to miss six-to-eight weeks of action.

 

Los Angeles has alternated wins and losses over its last six games and dropped a 96-91 decision to the rival Lakers last night. Blake Griffin registered a game-high 26 points and pulled down nine rebounds, while Chris Paul returned from a five-game absence because of a hamstring injury to post four points and 12 assists for the Clippers. LA went 3-2 without Paul in the lineup.
