MEMPHIS, Feb. 1 (UPI) -- Nick Calathes struck for 22 points in his first NBA start Saturday and the Memphis Grizzlies stayed on a roll with a 99-90 win over Milwaukee.
Calathes drained 8-of-12 from the field -- including 4-of-5 from 3-point range -- in his 35th NBA overall game. The 2009 second-round draft pick out of Florida easily bested his previous career high of 11 points, set Jan. 25 against Houston.
