Jaren Jackson Jr. recorded 20 points, seven rebounds and three steals in just 24 minutes of action to help the Memphis Grizzlies roll to an easy 134-89 victory over the host Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday night.

Jake LaRavia scored 18 points and Scotty Pippen Jr. added 17 for the Grizzlies. Santi Aldama registered 16 points, six rebounds and six assists, and Jaylen Wells also had 16 points for Memphis.

The Grizzlies have won five of their past six games with the wins coming by 23, 17, 17, 24 and now 45 points. Memphis cruised while again playing without Ja Morant (hip/pelvis), Desmond Bane (oblique) and Marcus Smart (ankle).

Jerami Grant scored 20 points for the Trail Blazers, who have dropped five of their past six games.

Dalano Banton and Donovan Clingan added 13 points apiece for Portland.

Memphis shot 55.3 percent from the field, going 16-for-43 from 3-point range. Zach Edey and Jay Huff each chipped in 12 points for the Grizzlies.

The Trail Blazers made 34 percent of their field-goal attempts and were a measly 9.5 percent (4 of 42) from behind the arc.

The Grizzlies led by 20 at halftime and pushed the lead to 30 when Wells buried a 3-pointer to make it 82-52 with 6:57 left in the third quarter.

Aldama connected on a 3-pointer to make it 93-60 with 4:15 remaining. The lead stretched to 38 on Edey’s inside hoop with 51.4 seconds left in the third.

Memphis led 106-68 entering the final stanza and never let up while finishing off the rout.

LaRavia scored 12 first-half points as the Grizzlies led 64-44 at the break. Grant had 13 points in the first half for Portland, which was 1-for-18 from 3-point range.

Memphis put together a 23-4 run in the first quarter, ending with a 3-pointer by Pippen for a 29-11 lead. The Grizzlies were on top 31-17 at the end of the period.

LaRavia’s dunk made it 60-35 with 3:12 left in the first half before Memphis settled for the 20-point halftime advantage.
