Tony Parker scored 24 points and the San Antonio Spurs used a furious start to the fourth quarter Thursday night to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers, 99-95, and remain undefeated at home.

at Memphis 103, Detroit 101: Mario Chalmers scored 25 points, including a leaning 19-foot jumper with less than a second remaining, to lift the Grizzlies.
