QUICK HITS: Memphis Grizzlies 105, Toronto Raptors 120

The Memphis Grizzlies (11-8) fell short to the Toronto Raptors (12-6) tonight, ending their six game road winning streak.

For a team who only had nine players to begin with – most of which, inexperienced – the Memphis Grizzlies held their own tonight in Toronto. Though the scoreboard showed 120-105, the Raptors held very few leads until minutes into the third quarter.

As if the Grizzlies weren’t injury-ridden already, floor general Mike Conley’s absence tonight definitely made an impact.  The Memphis back-court was instead led by Andrew Harrison and Troy Daniels, who may have just had his breakout game.

Kyle Lowry led both teams in scoring tonight, adding 29 points and 8 assists.

    What’s next?

    Memphis returns to the Grindhouse tomorrow night as the Grizzlies host the Orlando Magic for the second leg of their back-to-back.  The Magic (7-11) will look to capitalize on an injury plagued roster following their Tuesday night win over the Spurs in San Antonio.

    It is still unclear when Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph will return to the team following the loss of his mother on Thanksgiving.
