(SportsNetwork.com) - The Charlotte Hornets needed overtime to get past arguably the NBAs worst team last season for their first win of 2014-15. The Hornets will try to prevail in the 48 minutes allotted Saturday versus the Memphis Grizzlies at Time Warner Cable Arena. Charlotte recorded a 108-106 overtime triumph versus the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday and was led by Kemba Walkers 26 points. Marvin Williams and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist registered 19 and 17 points, respectively, while Al Jefferson posted 14 and 10 rebounds. Jefferson recorded a double-double for a 10th straight regular-season game dating back to last season. Walker hit the game-tying 3-pointer with 1.6 seconds to go in regulation. His basket with 5.1 seconds left in overtime was the difference. Lance Stephenson made his Hornets debut and had seven points, 13 rebounds and eight assists. Charlotte shot 40.6 percent for the game and made only 6-of-21 3-pointers. It rallied in the fourth quarter by scoring 32 points to Milwaukees 17 and had an 8-6 edge in OT. To be honest, I think (Milwaukee) played a lot better than we did, Hornets head coach Steve Clifford said of his teams 24-point turnaround. I did like the fact that when the game was on the line in the fourth quarter, at the end of the third and in overtime, we really tried hard to guard and we did a lot better. And guys made big plays. Charlotte improved to 9-1 over the last 10 regular-season games dating back to last season, including a five-game win streak from March 31-April 9. The Hornets will play six of the next eight games on the road after Saturday. Memphis improved to 2-0 in this young campaign with a 97-89 victory Friday night over the Indiana Pacers at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. The Grizz won the battle of two of the NBAs elite defenses from last season with, you guessed it, defense. It was all defense for us, guard Mike Conley said. The defense got the stops that we needed them to and we got out in transition to get some easy buckets. The Pacers shot respectable percentages from the field, but the Grizzlies put the game away with a 33-14 third-quarter scoring differential. Memphis went on a 26-2 run during that pivotal 12-minute stretch. We played with a lot more aggressiveness in the second half so they werent able to get up as many shots and get up by as many points in the second half, noted Grizzlies coach Dave Joerger. Zach Randolph scored 22 points with 13 rebounds to lead the Grizzlies. Marc Gasol, coming off a career-high 32 points in Memphis season-opening win over Minnesota, deposited 20 points with six rebounds. Conley added 17 points in the win. Guard Courtney Lee suffered a mild concussion in the first half and his availability for Saturday is unknown. Memphis and Charlotte split two meetings last season. These two teams have split the 10 meetings at Charlotte and will meet again on Dec. 12 in Memphis.

The Suns toppled the still-winless Los Angeles Lakers to start the season, then picked up an impressive victory Friday night when they stopped the defending champion San Antonio Spurs. Phoenix collected a 94-89 home win over the Spurs after it overcame an 11- point first quarter, which yielded a 13-point disadvantage. We kept telling the guys that we can win this game, head coach Jeff Hornacek said. Were not even playing that great. Hang in there. All of the sudden we got going a little bit. Thats the poise and the winning mentality that you have to have when the games get close, that were going to win the game. Isaiah Thomas led the way for the Suns with 23 points and became the fourth Sun, joining Tom Chambers, Tom Gugliotta and A.C. Green, to score at least 23 points in his first two games with the team. Markieff Morris posted 20 points and 11 rebounds, Eric Bledsoe tallied 12 points and nine boards and Alex Len provided his first career double-double, 100 points and 11 rebounds, off the pine for Phoenix.dddddddddddd Goran Dragic and Gerald Green scored 10 apiece. The Jazz started the season 0-2 thanks to losses at home to the Houston Rockets and a road setback to the Dallas Mavericks. On Thursday, the Jazz fell at American Airlines Center, 120-102. Derrick Favors went for 17 points and 11 rebounds for Utah, while both Gordon Hayward and Trey Burke scored 16 points in defeat. Alec Burks, who signed a four-year contract extension this week, had 15 and Enes Kanter was the fifth starter in double figures with 11. The Jazz were done in by Dallas fantastic shooting performance on Thursday night. The Mavericks went 47-for-85 from the field for a tidy 55.3 percent outing. We have to focus on the defensive end, said Favors. We did a good job with it in the preseason, and I think that got to our heads a little bit. We thought we were a good defensive team, and now reality set in. These two sides split four matchups last season as Phoenix won in Salt Lake City on Nov. 29. That was the Suns only win as the visitor in this series in their last five tries. ' ' 'eam, after an ownership change. ' ' '
