Kevin Love scored 29 points and grabbed 13 rebounds, and the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Memphis Grizzlies 103-86 Tuesday. LeBron James added 23 points, eight assists and six rebounds for the Cavs, who were without guard Kyrie Irving. Irving was rested but J.R. Smith broke out of a deep shooting slump and filled in admirably with six 3-pointers and 23 points. The Grizzlies also rested an All-Star, center Marc Gasol, despite already being short-handed. Mike Conley and Chandler Parsons are two of five Grizzlies out with injuries. Warriors 113, Pelicans 109: Steph Curry scored a team-high 30 points, and Draymond Green made a key strip of Anthony Davis in the final three seconds to lift the Golden State Warriors to a 113-109 road victory over the New Orleans Pelicans. The Pelicans (8-18) trailed 111-109 when Green, playing aggressive defense, slapped the ball from Davis and forced a turnover in a game-winning move. The Warriors (22-4) also got 12 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists from Green for his first triple-double of the season. Kevin Durant scored 27 points as Golden State finished a 4-1 road trip. Timberwolves 99, Bulls 94: The Minnesota Timberwolves overcame a 21-point deficit, the largest come-from-behind win in the NBA this season, to defeat the Bulls 99-94 Tuesday night to make sure coach Tom Thibodeau's return to Chicago was a success. The Timberwolves (7-18) ended a four-game losing streak for Thibodeau, who coached the Bulls for five seasons before he was fired following the 2014-15 season. Suns 113, Knicks 111 (overtime): Eric Bledsoe scored 16 of his 31 points in the fourth quarter and overtime as the Phoenix Suns recovered from blowing a 14-point third-quarter lead to beat the New York Knicks 113-111. Bledsoe has three straight games with 30 points, making him the first Sun to accomplish that since Amar'e Stoudemire in March 2010. Bledsoe added eight assists and six rebounds, and he made all 12 free throws. Kristaps Porzingis scored 34 points for New York, one shy of his career high, but missed a jump shot that would have won it at the end of regulation, before fouling out with 1:34 left in overtime. Magic 131, Hawks 120: The Orlando Magic hit 15 3-pointers while shooting 58.6 percent overall, and got 62 points off the bench in snapping a three-game losing streak with a 131-120 victory over the Atlanta Hawks. Serge Ibaka had 29 points and Evan Fournier scored 23 points as the Magic (11-15) had their biggest offensive night of the season. Trail Blazers 114, Thunder 95: Mason Plumlee scored 18 points to lead six Portland Trail Blazers scoring in double figures in a 114-95 rout of the Oklahoma City Thunder.
