Cam Spencer scored 25 points and Olivier-Maxence Prosper added 16 points and 10 rebounds -- his first career double-double -- to lead the visiting Memphis Grizzlies to a 124-105 victory Friday night over the Dallas Mavericks, who lost their seventh straight home game.
Scotty Pippen Jr. chipped in with 15 points and GG Jackson and Jaylen Wells had 12 each.
The Grizzlies placed seven players in double figures and got 60 points from their bench, led by Spencer. Taylor Hendricks contributed 11 points and eight
rebounds off the bench.
The Grizzlies snapped a three-game losing streak and won their sixth consecutive game against the Mavericks. Dallas has lost 12 of its past 14 games.
Brandon Williams had 16 points and eight rebounds for the Mavericks and Daniel Gafford added 14 points on 7-of-8 shooting. Dwight Powell finished with 13 points and 11 boards and Max Christie had 13 points. AJ Johnson scored 12 but was only 3-of-13 shooting.
Naji Marshall, who scored a season-high 36 points for the Mavericks in Thursday's game against Sacramento, was held to four points on only 2-of-6 shooting in 24 minutes.
Ahead by 20 at the half, the Grizzlies, who never trailed in the game, gradually built upon their lead. Memphis led by 34 late in the third quarter following two free throws by Spencer with 4:57 to go.
The Grizzlies led from the outset after two quick field goals from Pippen. They led by 14 at the end of the first quarter and extended the lead to 22 shortly before halftime. Memphis led 64-44 at the break.
Both teams were without a significant number of starters. The Grizzlies played their 16th straight game without star guard Ja Morant, who has been out since late January with a left elbow injury. The Mavericks played without leading rookie-of-the-year candidate Cooper Flagg, who has been sidelined with a midfoot sprain.
With the victory, the Grizzlies snapped a five-game road losing streak.
