Grizzlies 94, Bobcats 75: Mike Conley scored 20 points to go with seven assists and Zach Randolph had 11 points and 13 rebounds as Memphis ran its home winning streak to 13 games.

Jon Leuer added 11 points off the bench and Austin Daye contributed 10 for the Grizzlies, who have won six of seven overall and pulled within a half-game of third-place Denver in the Western Conference playoff race.

Kemba Walker scored 19 and Gerald Henderson added 13 for Charlotte, which dropped its 13th straight road game and has lost three straight meetings with Memphis.

The Grizzlies took command when Marc Gasol and Ed Davis combined to score the last seven points of the first quarter to open a nine-point lead, and Memphis maintained that cushion with a 49-40 halftime advantage.

Charlotte closed within 63-57 heading into the fourth, but the Grizzlies turned up the defensive intensity in the final period, holding the Bobcats scoreless for four minutes while stretching it out to 78-60 and cruising from there.

GAME NOTEBOOK: The Grizzlies' 13-game home winning streak is the second-longest in franchise history behind a 15-game run spanning the past two seasons, and the team's longest streak within a single season. … Walker did not record a steal and still needs one to tie Brevin Knight's franchise record of 157 set in 2005-06. … Memphis has held 67 of 78 opponents under 100 points.
