ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Tayshaun Prince had 14 points and Marc Gasol added 12 points and 11 rebounds as the Memphis Grizzlies cruised to a 108-82 victory over the Orlando Magic on Sunday night.

The Grizzlies, who have won nine of their last 10 games, led by as many as 32 points and had six players in double figures. Sunday was their first of five straight games against teams with losing records.

Memphis played without forward Zach Randolph, who rested the left ankle he sprained in last Friday’s loss to Miami.

Arron Afflalo and E'Twaun Moore each added 12 points to lead a Magic team that has lost 17 of 19 on its home floor.

Orlando is now just 4-31 since Dec. 20, and begins a two-game road trip Monday at New Orleans.end of story marker
