Heading home: Wolves at Memphis ends four-game trip

Winding it up against the winning Grizzlies (man, that sounds weird)

January 16, 2010 at 2:08AM

The Wolves finish this trip that started Saturday in Chicago tonight at the FedEx Forum, where the Wolves trail 66-59 at halftime, but Al Jefferson already has scored 21 points on 10-for-12 shooting.

Kurt Rambis keeps maintaining that Jefferson likely won't be back completely from that knee surgery for a full year after he first suffered it.

That would be Feb. 8.

No telling what he might score by then.

Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins finally has granted Marc Gasol a reprieve and put Zach Randolph on Big Al in an attempt to contain him.
