(Sports Network) - The New Orleans Hornets are back at home and will host the Memphis Grizzlies tonight at New Orleans Arena.
The Hornets just went 1-2 on a three-game road trip and put the brakes on a three-game slide with a 132-130 double-overtime win against the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday at US Airways Center. Chris Paul poured in 42 points and Peja Stojakovic hit the game-winning jumper as time expired in the second overtime to lead the Hornets to victory.
Paul also distributed nine assists and posted a career-high eight steals for the Hornets, who are 10-3 over their last 13 contests. Stojakovic tallied 26 points on 12-of-19 shooting from the field.
In injury news for the Hornets, center Tyson Chandler (flu) is questionable for Saturday's game against Memphis. New Orleans is 16-8 as the host this season.
The Grizzlies, meanwhile, will try to stop a five-game skid when they close out a short two-game road trip this evening in New Orleans. In Friday's 92-81 loss to the Dallas Mavericks at American Airlines Center, Rudy Gay contributed 18 points and 12 rebounds for the Grizzlies, who lost for the seventh time in their last eight contests. Mike Miller scored 15 points, while Javaris Crittenton had 10 in a losing cause.
Memphis has lost seven straight on the road and is 4-18 away from FedExForum this season.
Memphis and New Orleans are meeting for the fourth and final time in the regular season on Friday. The Hornets are 3-0 so far this season and have won four straight and nine of the last 10 matchups in the series.
The Grizzlies have lost five straight after winning the last two meetings at the Hornets.
