MEMPHIS, Tenn. http://www.shopjerseyslions.com/Elite-Nick-Fairley-Womens-Jersey-Detroit-Lions-98-Alternate-Blue-Nike-NFL-78.html . -- As the injury list continues to grow for the Memphis Grizzlies, reserves like Jon Leuer are seizing the opportunities they get. Leuer scored 16 points and grabbed a career-best 12 rebounds Monday night to help the short-handed Grizzlies build an early lead and hold on to defeat the Orlando Magic 94-85. "Weve had a lot of guys go down," Leuer said. "It obviously makes it tough, but it opens up other opportunities for guys to come in and contribute." Memphis reserves outscored their Orlando counterparts 38-4, helping send the Magic to their sixth straight loss. The Grizzlies bench players are getting more playing time as injuries to four key players left only nine available against Orlando. Memphis centre Marc Gasol is out indefinitely with a knee injury, while Ed Davis (ankle) and Tony Allen (hip) also sat out. Earlier in the day, the Grizzlies announced guard/forward Quincy Pondexter will miss significant time, possibly the rest of the season, with a right foot stress fracture. "Guys are stepping up. Thats what we need. We need everybody now," said Memphis forward Zach Randolph, who led the Grizzlies with 19 points and matched Leuers 12 boards, part of Memphis 52-35 rebounding advantage. Mike Conley had 13 points for Memphis and Jerryd Bayless finished with 11 points, including a late 3-pointer to preserve the win and end a two-game slide. Conley also had seven assists. The Magic were missing centre Nikola Vucevic, their leading rebounder and second-leading scorer, who missed his fourth straight game with a sprained left ankle. "The good thing is these bumps are coming early as far as tough losses and guys not being healthy," said Magic centre Glen Davis, who had 16 points and nine rebounds. "If we can get guys healthy and learn to stay together, we can overcome these obstacles." Andrew Nicholson and Jameer Nelson led the Magic with 19 points apiece. Nicholson also grabbed 11 rebounds while hitting 8 of 12 from the field. Arron Afflalo scored 17 points and Victor Oladipo added 10. Jason Maxiell was Orlandos sole reserve to score, getting four points. Memphis, which led by as many as 23 in the game, held a 14-point lead with just over 7 minutes left, but had to withstand a final push from the Magic. "There is always a point in the game that you can give in, or you can choose to rally around each other and try to fight," Orlando coach Jacque Vaughn said. "We put a group out on the floor that gave us a chance to do that. They gave us a chance to win." The short bench didnt seem to faze Memphis in the first half. The Grizzlies used 19 unanswered points spanning the first and second quarters to take a 51-30 lead at the break. While Memphis was going on its 19-0 run, the Magic went almost 7 minutes without scoring. Nicholson did his best to pull the Magic back into the game, scoring 13 points in the third. That allowed Orlando to pull within 10 before Jamaal Franklins 3-pointer at the horn gave Memphis a 73-60 lead entering the final quarter. But the Magic continued to push behind Afflalo, whose seven early points in the final frame included a pair of free throws with 4:19 left to get Orlando within 85-78. The run eventually would reach 12-2, and the Magic were within 87-83. But Randolph scored the next three points, and the Grizzlies weathered the rally for only their second win in the last seven home games. "Its tough. Its real tough," Randolph said of the injuries. "Weve got to just come out and play. Everyone has to step up like theyve been doing." NOTES: Franklin had a career-high eight points. ... The Grizzlies had their string of eight consecutive games with eight different leading scorers end. ... Memphis G Nick Calathes had a career-high eight assists. ... Leuers previous best in rebounds was nine on two occasions, including earlier this month against Phoenix. ... Orlando is 1-10 on the road this season. Barry Sanders Jersey For Sale . Nine days after Madrid eked out a 1-0 victory at Espanyols Cornella-El Prat Stadium in the Spanish league, the visitors were again limited to the narrowest of winning margins -- despite dominating the first half, when Cristiano Ronaldo hit the post before Benzema headed home in the 25th minute. Nick Fairley Lions Jersey . Centre Samuel Bennett of the Ontario Hockey Leagues Kingston Frontenacs leads the pack among North American skaters, with 26 goals and 66 points this season.PHILADELPHIA -- In an unexpected defensive tussle, the depleted Dallas Cowboys delivered the knockout punch. Tony Romo threw for 317 yards and one touchdown, a banged-up defence shut down Chip Kellys prolific offence and the Cowboys overcame a sluggish start to beat the Philadelphia Eagles 17-3 on Sunday to take sole possession of first place in the NFC East. At least there wont be a quarterback controversy in Philadelphia after this one. Nick Foles was awful leaving with a head injury. "Obviously, our defence was outstanding," Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said. "That offence challenges you in so many ways. They have a really good scheme. Our defence played sound, played together. They were physical and our tackling was outstanding." Two teams that averaged a combined 58.2 points per game and allowed a combined 55.2 totalled 13 punts in a first half that ended with Dallas (4-3) leading 3-0. It was more two inept offences than two dominant defences. A Cowboys defensive line missing three of its projected starters pressured and harassed Foles until putting him out on the final play of the third quarter. With Michael Vick inactive because of a hamstring injury, Matt Barkley made his NFL debut and threw three interceptions in the fourth quarter. "I was maybe a little too aggressive on some of those throws, trying to advance the ball down the field and help our team win," Barkley said. "I learned a lot today. Ill learn even more watching the tape." The Eagles (3-4) have lost a franchise-worst nine straight games at home. Their last win at the Linc was over the New York Giants on Sept. 30, 2012. Dallas played without four-time All-Pro defensive end DeMarcus Ware, who missed the first game in his nine-year career because of a quadriceps injury. Anthony Spencer, the end opposite Ware, is out for the season after knee surgery. Four-time Pro Bowl tackle Jay Ratliff was released during the week after failing a physical. George Selvie had 1 1/2 sacks and combined with Jarius Wynn on the hit that forced Foles out of the game. Wynn was signed last Tuesday after being released by San Diego. "Its a testament to how hard and committed these guys are to practicing," Romo said. "Its neat for themm to have a game like this. http://www.shopjerseyslions.com/Womens-Kyle-Van-Noy-Authentic-Jersey/. They wouldve won it by themselves." Foles, coming off an impressive performance at Tampa Bay last week that earned him NFC Player of the Week honours, had his worst game since his first career start at Washington last November. He finished 11 of 29 for 80 yards and was sacked three times. Foles misfired on several throws to open receivers, including a low throw to Jason Avant in the end zone in the third quarter. "All of us on offence, our decision making wasnt very good," Kelly said. "It was all of us on offence. Its not just one guy." Kelly is hopeful Vick will return this week. There was no word on the extent of Foles injury. The Eagles sorely missed Vicks scrambling ability. Also, Vicks presence makes LeSean McCoy more dangerous because teams have to be wary of both in Kellys read-zone offence. McCoy, the NFLs leading rusher, was held to 55 yards on 18 carries. "We knew it was going to be an extreme challenge coming in, and I felt we answered the bell," said linebacker Sean Lee, who had one of the picks on Barkley. Cowboys rookie Joseph Randle had 65 yards rushing filling in for injured running back DeMarco Murray. Phillip Tanner scored on a 1-yard run. Romo was 28 of 47 and threw two picks. The first 11 possessions resulted in 11 punts before Dan Bailey kicked a 38-yard field goal to give Dallas a 3-0 lead with 3:17 left in the first half. Alex Henery missed wide left on a 60-yard attempt with 9 seconds left in the second quarter. DeMeco Ryans intercepted a poor pass by Romo and returned it 36 yards to the Cowboys 30 to set up Henerys 31-yard field goal that cut it to 10-3. But the Cowboys answered with Romo tossing a 9-yard TD pass to Terrance Williams to make it 17-3. At Oregon, Kellys teams scored 150 points in three meetings against Monte Kiffin when he was defensive co-ordinator for USC. Kiffin now holds that position with the Cowboys, so the defensive mastermind wins their first matchup in the pros. NOTES: The Cowboys got their first road win and are 3-0 in the division for first time since 2007. ... The Eagles were the fourth team in NFL history to have 400 yards of offence in each of first six games. They were held to 278. ' ' '
