The Portland Trail Blazers dealt the Memphis Grizzlies more misery in the first contest of a two-game set. Now the Trail Blazers look to make it a sweep when they entertain Memphis again on Sunday night in Portland. The Trail Blazers trailed by 10 points with 3:21 left in regulation on Friday night before using a 12-2 run and a superb defensive play by Shaedon Sharpe to push the game into overtime. Portland led by seven in the extra session before prevailing 115-113. The disappointing loss dropped the Grizzlies to 0-6, their worst start since losing 13 straight games to begin the 2002-03 season. The victory was the third straight for the Trail Blazers.
