Chandler Parsons scored 24 points off the bench to help guide the Memphis Grizzlies to their second win over the Houston Rockets and a 5-1 start to the season.
Parsons’ outburst, his most since joining the Grizzlies, was part of a 67-point performance from the Grizzlies’ reserves, five points shy of the single-game franchise record. Parsons, who logged 18:38 from the second unit, posted the highest score ever by a Grizzlies player who played fewer than 20 minutes in a game.
Memphis also got a season-high 15 points from Mario Chalmers and 14 points and seven rebounds from Tyreke Evans.
