MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph, the team’s leading scorer and rebounder, is sitting out Friday night’s game against the Milwaukee Bucks with a sprained right ankle.
Randolph, who averages 20.2 points and 13.2 rebounds, injured the ankle near the end of the Grizzlies’ 105-101 overtime win at Oklahoma City on Tuesday night. He finished, but hobbled through the final seconds.
Memphis already was without reserve shooting guard O.J. Mayo, serving a 10-game suspension for violating the league’s performance-enhancing drug policy.
Rudy Gay, Memphis’ second-leading scorer, was expected to play after missing a game with a sprained right big toe.
For Milwaukee, reserves Larry Sanders (back spasms) and Chris Douglas-Roberts (virus) were out.
