MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Vince Carter scored 23 points and Devin Harris added 17 points and eight assists as the New Jersey Nets snapped a five-game losing skid with a 99-88 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday night.

The game was close early in the fourth quarter, but the Nets outscored the Grizzlies 27-18 in the period, sending them to their ninth straight loss.

O.J. Mayo scored 23 points to lead the Grizzlies, who were playing their second game under interim coach Johnny Davis, who took over when Marc Iavaroni was fired Thursday. Memphis is scheduled to introduce new coach Lionel Hollins at a press conference Sunday.
