Beno Udrih scored 20 points in the best playoff game of his career, and the Grizzlies never trailed in routing the Portland Trail Blazers 100-86 on Sunday night in Game 1 of the Western Conference first-round series.
Udrih hit his first six shots coming off the bench late in the first quarter, and he allowed Mike Conley to sit the entire fourth quarter in his first game back after missing four with a sprained right foot.
LaMarcus Aldridge led Portland with 32 points while taking more shots than anyone had ever taken against Memphis in the postseason, going 13 of 34.
