HOUSTON (Ticker) -- Kyle Lowry recorded a triple-double -collecting 21 points, 12 assists and 11 rebounds - as theMemphis Grizzlies posted a 109-107 double-overtime preseasonvictory over the Houston Rockets on Tuesday.


Rudy Gay scored 18 points and Stromile Swift had 16 for theGrizzlies, who played without star center Pau Gasol. The formerAll-Star center sat out with a left ankle sprain.


Lowry badly outplayed his competition for the point guard spot,first-round pick Mike Conley Jr. Conley scored just four pointsand had two assists, logging just 14 minutes because of foultrouble.


Meanwhile, Gay continued his solid preseason and seems poisedfor a breakout year. The eighth overall pick in the 2006 draft,Gay was 7-of-12 from the field and added four steals - givingthe Rockets a glimpse of what could have been.


Houston traded Gay's draft rights, along with Swift, to Memphisfor Shane Battier. The 6-9 Gay was a perfect 6-of-6 from thefield in Saturday's win over Miami, including five 3-pointers.

Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady scored 10 points apiece for theRockets, while Battier scored just two points on 1-of-8shooting.


Mike James netted 19 points and Steve Francis added 13 forHouston, which shot 43 percent (40-of-92) from the floor.
