Nets push past Grizzlies for rare winning streak

Day'Ron Sharpe tied a season high by scoring 19 points and the Brooklyn Nets pulled away for a 126-115 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday in New York.

The Nets followed up their comeback from a 23-point deficit in Detroit two nights earlier by winning consecutive games for the first time since early February. Brooklyn prevailed while resting Michael Porter Jr. on the front end of a back-to-back and after announcing Egor Demin was shut down for the rest of the season due to a foot injury.
