Ja Morant scores 29 and Grizzlies climb out of early hole to beat Suns 120-118
Cam Spencer, a rookie on a two-way contract, added a career-high 16 points for Memphis, including a pair of free throws with 14.4 seconds left that sealed the Grizzlies' third straight win.
Kevin Durant scored 35 points and Devin Booker added 26 for the Suns, who jumped out to a 25-9 lead that evaporated before halftime. The game was close throughout the fourth quarter and Durant missed a potential game-winning 3-pointer just before the buzzer.
Both teams were coming off victories a night earlier. The Suns' Bradley Beal was sidelined for left calf injury management, while the Grizzlies continued to play without leading scorer Jaren Jackson Jr., who missed his fourth straight game with a left ankle sprain.
Grizzlies: Eight of their last 10 games have been decided by seven points or fewer, with Memphis going 4-4 in those close contests.
