MEMPHIS, (Reuters) – The Dallas Mavericks rode the hot shooting of Jason Terry to pull away from the Memphis Grizzlies in a 106-91 victory on Wednesday.
Terry scored a game-high 25 points and made 11 of 16 shots as the Mavericks (5-2) improved to 3-0 on the road for the first time since they won seven straight away from home to start the 2002-03 NBA season.
Shawn Marion added 20 points to supplement a quiet night from German forward Dirk Nowitzki, who had 12 points and 10 rebounds despite suffering an ankle injury early in the game.
Dallas led 55-50 at halftime then started the third quarter with a 7-0 run and opened up a 19-point advantage to steer clear of the Grizzlies (4-5).
Zach Randolph had 23 points and nine rebounds for Memphis who entered the night with consecutive wins.
