Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph combined for four baskets on Memphis’ first four possessions of overtime as the Grizzlies rallied from a 24 point deficit in the third quarter to win 128-119.

“We just kept fighting,” Randolph said. “Our leaders had great games. “I am in my prime. I feel good. I am doing what is best for my team.”

Mike Conley nailed a clutch jump shot with seven seconds left in regulation to tie the score for the Grizzlies who were also down by 18 points with 7:47 left in the fourth.

The Grizzlies, who outscored the Warriors 32-13 in the fourth quarter, dominated the overtime, using the four hoops by Gasol and Randolph to build a lead they never relinquished.

Conley and Randolph had 27 points apiece and Gasol added 23 for Memphis, who won for the second time this season over Golden State. The Grizzlies also won in resounding fashion 110-89 on December 10 in Memphis.

Stephen Curry had a game-high 40 points for the Warriors who lost just their sixth game of the season to go with 31 wins.

The Grizzlies have struggled defensively of late. Heading into Friday night’s contest they had lost four of six, allowing 112 or more points in each of the defeats.

“It has been a tough stretch. This win should give us confidence. We have to continue what we are doing,” Randolph said.
