Klay Thompson's hot streak allow Warriors to distance themselves from Grizzlies

OAKLAND, Calif. -- The Golden State Warriors held off the undermanned Memphis Grizzlies, 106-94, with a devastating closing flourish to finish a dogged foe. Memphis leveraged a bully ball style throughout the game up until the end, when the Warriors zoomed past. For much of the action, a great Grizzlies performance was held at bay by Klay Thompson's hot shooting (Thompson finished 12-of-18 for a game-high 31 points).

Even without Marc Gasol (foot), the Grizzlies weren't exactly spread thin down low. With the lumbering Zach Randolph starting in place of the Spaniard, Memphis controlled the middle at the beginning of the game.
