Former Laker Sasha Vujacic Leads Nets To Victory

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (CBS/AP) -- Brook Lopez scored 26 points, Sasha Vujacic added a season-high 16 and the New Jersey Nets snapped a 10-game road losing streak with a 101-94 victory over the Memphis
Grizzlies on Tuesday night.

Lopez was 8 of 14 from the field, and missed only one of his 11 free throws as New Jersey won its second straight and third in the last four games.

Devin Harris and Kris Humphries scored 12 apiece, with Humphries grabbing 15 rebounds. Travis Outlaw had 11 points and nine rebounds as the Nets outrebounded Memphis 49-39.

Marc Gasol scored 19 points and O.J. Mayo added 17, including 11 in the fourth quarter. Mike Conley finished with 13 points and eight assists. Zach Randolph had 11 points and 14 rebounds.

Last week the Nets aquired Vujacic from the Los Angeles Lakers in part of a 3-team trade.
