Randolph's 25 lead Grizz to 1st playoff win
Zach Randolph - F/C - Memphis Grizzlies
April 17, 2011 - 5:10 PM ET

Zach Randolph had 25 points, 14 rebounds and two blocks on 10-of-15 shooting as the Grizzlies shocked the Spurs to win 101-98 in San Antonio in Game 1 of their first-round playoff matchup on Sunday.

Wow. The Grizzlies fought off a late 3-pointer by Matt Bonner to hold on for the win, as Shane Battier matched it with one of his own. Randolph's strong play inside and scoring, along with Marc Gasol's, proved too much for the No. 1 seed today. This was the first playoff win in history for Memphis, as they joined the Hawks for a Game 1 upset win.
