(AP photo) Blazers Win at Home Avoid sweep to keep playoff hopes alive (AP) — Damian Lillard had 32 points and the Portland Trail Blaz- ers avoided elimination from the playoffs with a 99-92 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Mon- day night. Memphis led by as many as 10 points in the fourth quarter, but Portland rallied to deny the Grizzlies their first-ever playoff sweep. LaMarcus Aldridge had 18 points and 12 rebounds for Port- land. Marc Gasol led the Grizzlies with 21 points. Game 5 is Wednesday in Mem- phis. Memphis was playing without point guard Mike Conley, who was inadvertently elbowed in the face in the third quarter of Game 3 and underwent surgery on Mon- day morning. His status for the rest of the playoffs is uncertain. The winner of the series goes on to face the Golden State War- riors in the second round.
