MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Jaren Jackson Jr. had 21 points, 11 rebounds and three blocks, Zach Edey also scored 21 points and grabbed 16 rebounds, and the Memphis Grizzlies set a franchise-scoring record in blowing out the skidding Toronto Raptors 155-126 on Thursday night.

The 155 points are the most by an NBA team this season and came despite the Grizzlies having no players score more than 21 points.

Desmond Bane added 19 points, Jaylen Wells scored 17 and Ja Morant had 15 points and nine assists for Memphis, which had seven players with at least 15 points, tied for the most in a game in NBA history.

The Grizzlies won for the third time in four games.

Toronto lost its ninth straight and fell to 1-14 on the road. RJ Barrett led the Raptors with 27 points, and Scottie Barnes added 26. Chris Boucher finished with 15.

Both teams played porous defense for three quarters and each reached 100 points before the fourth started. A burst by Memphis in the third pushed the lead to 22.

Takeaways

Raptors: Despite the skid, Toronto had played close games recently. Of the previous seven, only one was decided by more than 10 points.

Grizzlies: Memphis leads the NBA in scoring at 122.7 points per game, and the Grizzlies scored 78 in the first two quarters -- their most in a half this season.

Key moment

Memphis was already up 127-103 with 10:29 left when Raptors coach Darko Rajakovic went at official J.T. Orr complaining about calls. Orr handed out one technical foul but Rajakovic kept coming as players tried to restrain him. Orr then called another technical, sending a steaming Rajakovic to the locker room.

Key stat

The Grizzlies had a season-high 24 offensive rebounds, leading to 33 second-chance points - also a season best.

Up next

Toronto hosts the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday. The Grizzlies begin a five-game trip in New Orleans on Friday.
