Mayo keys Grizzlies' OT win over Nuggets

Posted January 31, 2012 on AP on Fox
PLAYERS: O.J. Mayo,  Rudy Fernandez,  Rudy Gay,  Marc Gasol,  Tony Allen,  Al Harrington
TEAMS: Memphis Grizzlies,  Denver Nuggets

O.J. Mayo scored 18 points, including a go-ahead 3-pointer with 35 seconds left in overtime, as the Memphis Grizzlies snapped a four-game losing streak with a 100-97 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday night. Mayo's basket gave Memphis a 98-97 lead, and two free throws by Mike Conley with 8 seconds left gave Memphis the final margin. Rudy Fernandez's potential tying 3-point attempt in the closing seconds for Denver bounced off the rim, sending the Nuggets to their second straight loss. Rudy Gay and Marc Gasol both overcame poor shooting nights to lead Memphis with 20 points apiece, each also grabbing 13 boards as the Grizzlies outrebounded the Nuggets 48-42. Tony Allen had 17 points and four blocks, and his defensive pressure in the second half keyed a Grizzlies rally. Al Harrington led Denver with 23 points, 21 after halftime, and 10 rebounds.
