ONTARIO, Calif. - The Agua Caliente Clippers (17-18) ran out of gas in the second half and fall to the Memphis Hustle (25-10), 111-97, on Tuesday afternoon.

The Clippers started out the game strong, going into the half with a 60-58 advantage against the Western Conference-leading Hustle.

They would go on to lead by as much as 17 on their way to victory.

The Clippers were paced by James Palmer Jr.'s 24 points on 11-of-22 shooting from the field. Donte Grantham added a double-double with 10 points and 13 boards.

Memphis were led by Jarrod Uthoff's game-high 27 points and 13 rebounds.
