TEAM NOTES FRATELLO LEADS FURIOUS APRIL FINISH; EARNS COACH OF THE MONTH HONORS: (April 20) - The NBA announced today that Memphis Grizzlies Head Coach Mike Fratello was named the Western Conference Coach of the Month for April. For the month, Fratello and the Grizzlies were a Western Conference best 8-1 (.888) and secured the fifth seed in the West. He had five players score in double figures and 13 players average double figures in minutes. The Grizzlies’ win over the Los Angeles Clippers (104-95 on April 18) was their seventh in the month, setting a record for the most in April in franchise history. With a win over the Milwaukee Bucks on April 7 (100-90), Fratello surpassed Hubie Brown as the franchise’s all-time winningest coach with his 84th victory. This is Fratello’s second time with the Grizzlies and fifth time overall being named an NBA Coach of the Month. Previous honors were with the Atlanta Hawks (January 1986) and twice with the Cleveland Cavaliers (December 1994, December 1995).

*At 8-1 (.888), the Grizzlies earned their best month in franchise history (previously went 13-2, .867, in Mar. ’04) and were one of only two teams in the entire league with only a single loss in April. Prior to this season, the Grizzlies had gone 14-24 (.368) during the month of April since coming to Memphis prior to the 2001-02 season (Grizz 30-75, .286, in April while in Vancouver). Memphis closed the 2005-06 regular season with five consecutive victories. PLAYOFFS FAMILIAR TERRITORY FOR FRATELLO: Grizzlies Head Coach Mike Fratello is no stranger to the postseason. Fratello took over the Grizzlies last season on Dec. 2/04, bringing along 13 years of coaching experience, a 572-465 (.552) overall NBA record, as well as wealth of playoff basketball experience. Including last season’s Grizzly playoff squad, Fratello-led teams have qualified for the NBA playoffs in 10 of his 14 seasons as a head coach (all-time playoff record of 20-38, .345). Consequently, the upcoming 2006 NBA Playoffs will represent Fratello’s 11th postseason run. Among active NBA head coaches, Fratello ranks seventh heading into the 2006 postseason in terms of number of seasons qualifying for the playoffs, as shown by the breakdown below:

FRATELLO SURPASSES BROWN AS FRANCHISE LEADER IN COACHING VICTORIES: With a win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Apr. 7, head coach Mike Fratello surpassed Hubie Brown as the franchise’s all-time winningest coach with his 84th victory at the helm of the Grizzlies. Already the franchise’s leader in terms of winning percentage*, Feb. 11’s win over the Los Angeles Lakers was Fratello’s 639th career coaching victory, surpassing former Pistons coach Chuck Daly for 17th all-time. Consequently, ‘The Czar’ is just 36 wins shy of matching Red Holzman for 16th all-time (696). Below is a breakdown of the Grizzlies top five winningest coaches, and where Fratello ranks in all-time coaching victories:

MISCELLANEOUS NOTES

GASOL HAS CAREER NIGHT: Pau Gasol scored a career-high and single-game franchise-record 44 points vs. Seattle on Mar. 28, shooting 17-28 from the field and 10-12 from free throw line. Gasol’s 44 topped his previous career-high of 39 points and was three points better than the previous franchise record of 41 points (Mike Miller, Bryant Reeves). Gasol has topped the 30-point plateau in three consecutive games from Mar. 24-28, scoring 113 points in that span and setting franchise-record for scoring over three consecutive games. The old record was set by Bryant Reeves, who totaled 101 points in a three-game span from Mar. 23-27/98. GASOL HAS STELLAR NIGHT IN THE BIG APPLE; BECOMES FRANCHISE REBOUND LEADER: Pau Gasol had another stellar night in a win at New York on Mar. 24, finishing with a game-high 36 points on 14-24 shooting, eight rebounds, three assists and three blocks in 41 minutes. His eight rebounds gave him 3,072 for his career at the time, surpassing former Grizzly Shareef Abdur-Rahim (3,070) as the all-time franchise leader in rebounds. The bearded big man also stepped out beyond the arc and knocked down his third three-point field goal of the season and 10th of his career. MILLER HAS CAREER-NIGHT: Mike Miller scored a career-high 41 points on 15-24 shooting, including a 5-12 performance from three-point range on Mar. 17 vs. Denver, also at the time, tying the franchise mark for points in a single game (Bryant Reeves, @ BOS on Jan. 15/98). Miller’s 41 points established a new franchise record for most points scored by a Grizzly off the bench. It also marked the third-highest total by a non-starter over the last 10 years. GASOL POSTS FIRST CAREER TRIPLE-DOUBLE: Pau Gasol had one of the best all-around games of his career at Seattle on Mar. 8, finishing with a game-high 21 points, 12 rebounds and a game and career-high 12 assists – recording the first triple-double of his career. Gasol’s triple-double was just the fifth in franchise history, and second since the team’s relocation to Memphis (see ‘Miller in 3-D’ below). *Gasol is the only player in the NBA to post a triple-double consisting of at least 20 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists this season. Gasol also had a career-high four steals and three blocks in 41 minutes. GRIZZLIES ALL-STAR ACTION: Pau Gasol appeared in his first All-Star game, finishing with a game-high 12 rebounds, including a game-high six on the offensive end (tied with Tim Duncan) in 14 minutes of action. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, prior to this year’s game, only one player had even half that many total rebounds in an NBA All-Star Game in which he failed to score (Darrell Imhoff had seven boards in the 1967 All-Star Game; Ben Wallace also had eight rebounds without scoring on Sunday night). His 12 rebounds is also the most in an All-Star game since Tim Duncan pulled down 13 caroms in the 2004 All-Star Game in Los Angeles. Gasol represents the Grizzlies’ first All-Star in franchise history and the first Spanish player in NBA history to be selected to the All-Star team. Grizzlies rookie Hakim Warrick also participated in this year’s All-Star festivities, placing third in the Sprite Rising Stars Slam Dunk competition Saturday night. Warrick was the first Memphis Grizzlies player to compete in the contest, and second player in franchise history to participate in the event (Stromile Swift, 2001 Slam Dunk competition). MILLER IN 3-D; GRIZZ STAR RESERVE POSTS FIRST CAREER TRIPLE-DOUBLE: Mike Miller recorded his first career triple-double in a win over Sacramento on Jan. 10, finishing with 21 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in 41 minutes off the bench. Miller’s efforts marked the fourth triple-double in franchise history, and first since the team’s relocation to Memphis – ending the Grizzlies' streak of 452 games without a player recording a triple-double (since Mike Bibby had one on Apr. 2/00). At the time, it was the second-longest current drought in the league. Utah (at the time) had the longest active streak, but snapped their drought as well at 530 straight games when Andrei Kirilenko recorded his first career triple-double on Jan. 17 (first since Karl Malone posted one on May 4/99). Miller is just the third NBA player in the last 10 years to record a triple-double in a game that he did not start. Shawn Bradley did it for Dallas on Apr. 7/98 as did Magic Johnson for the Lakers on Feb. 14/96. 2005-06 TEAM HIGHLIGHTS: - The Grizzlies’ win on Nov. 19 @ Utah gave Mike Fratello his 47th victory with Memphis, surpassing Sidney Lowe as the franchise’s second-winningest coach in history. - The Grizzlies opened the season by going 10-5 in November, their best opening month in franchise history. The Grizzlies were one of only seven teams to post 10 or

more wins in November in the NBA this season. - The Grizzlies won their first-ever game in Dallas at American Airlines Center in their first game against Dallas this season (Nov. 26). - Memphis won three-straight games by 20 or more points for the first time with wins over Dallas (Nov. 26), Toronto (Nov. 30) and Orlando (Dec. 2), accomplishing the

feat for the first time in franchise history. - The Grizzlies tied the franchise record for the most wins in December, going 9-5 in the month. - By earning their 20th win with a victory over Golden State on Jan. 3 (only 30 games into the season), the Grizzlies reached the 20-win plateau quicker than they have in

any other season. The previous best was through 38 games, accomplished both last season and in the 2003-04 season. For comparison, the Grizzlies didn’t crack 20 wins in each of their first four seasons (including the lockout-shortened 1998-99 season).

- The Grizzlies record of 25-16 through their first 41 games was their best first-half start to a season in franchise history. - Memphis’ win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Feb. 11was Mike Fratello’s 639th career coaching victory, surpassing former Detroit Pistons head coach Chuck Daly for

17th all-time in the NBA. - The Grizzlies posted a 10-6 record in the month of March, their second month of the season with double figures in the win column. It also marked the second-most

wins in March in franchise history. - The Grizzlies recorded their 27th home win of the season on Apr. 4, the second-most in franchise history.

th- Memphis’ win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Apr. 7 was the 84 under the tutelage of head coach Mike Fratello, surpassing Hubie Brown as the Grizzlies’ all-time winningest coach.

- The Grizzlies’ home win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Apr. 18 was their seventh during the month of April, setting a new franchise record for the most victories in the month of April.

- Memphis finished 49-33, their second-best season in franchise history (one shy of the matching the franchise record for victories; 50 wins in 2003-04). GRIZZLIES IN THE COMMUNITY :

GRIZZLIES HEAD COACH, MIKE FRATELLO President of Basketball Operations Jerry West announced on December 2, 2004 that NBA veteran coach Mike Fratello had been named the Grizzlies seventh head coach in team history. Fratello, 57, joined the Grizzlies as one of the NBA’s most successful coaches in history, ranking 19th on the all-time wins list (572) and 21st on the all-time games coached list (1,037). A 13-year coaching veteran, he had compiled a 572-465 (.552) overall NBA record, qualifying for the NBA playoffs in nine of his 13 seasons as a head coach (20-34), with an all-time playoff record of 20-34. Fratello inherited a struggling Grizzlies squad that had opened the year 5-11, but quickly started to turn the season around with a victory in his very first game as Memphis’ head coach with a 94-86 victory over Philadelphia. Under the direction of “The Czar,” the team went on to post their longest winning streak of the season, winning six consecutive games from December 27 – January 7. Memphis carried their momentum throughout January, posting the most wins in the month in franchise history, going 12-3, including an NBA best mark of 6-2 on the road. The Grizzlies’ efforts during the month earned Fratello Coach of the Month honors for the fourth time in his career, and first with the Grizzlies. The team’s 21-9 record in their first 30 games under Fratello, was at the time tied for the seventh best start under a head coach that took over mid or part-way through the season. On March 4, 2005, Fratello reached yet another milestone, becoming just the 19th coach in NBA history to post 600 wins in his professional coaching career. The Grizzlies finished the year at 45-37, earning a spot in the playoffs for the second consecutive season, and second time in franchise history. Fratello began his NBA coaching career as an assistant coach with the Atlanta Hawks (1978-82), before stepping into his first head coaching role when he and Brendan Suhr were named co-interim head coaches of the Hawks, replacing Hubie Brown 79 games into the 1980-81 season. In 1982, he joined the New York Knicks as an assistant coach for one season (1982-83) before returning to the Hawks as head coach in 1983 to lead Atlanta for seven seasons. During his seven-year stint, he compiled a 324-250 winning record (.564), advancing to the playoffs in five seasons, including leading the Hawks to a Central Division title in 1987. His 324 regular season victories, 18 postseason wins and 577 games coached rank second among Hawks all-time franchise coaching lists. He set a franchise record for winning at least 50 games in four consecutive seasons (1985-89), earning 1986 NBA Coach of the Year honors after leading the Hawks to a 50-32 record. In 1990, he left the sidelines to join the broadcasting booth for the first time in his career when he signed on to cover the NBA on NBC Sports for three seasons (1990-93). In 1993, he returned to the coaching ranks to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers, compiling a 248-212 regular season record and guiding his team to four post-season appearances during his six-year stint (1993-99). His 248 victories rank third on Cleveland’s all-time list. After six seasons with Cleveland, Fratello resumed his broadcasting career, joining Turner Sports in 1999 where he has served as a broadcaster for NBA basketball for the past six years. Partnered with Marv Albert and Steve Kerr for TNT’s Thursday Night NBA coverage, he also served as an NBA analyst during the playoffs from 1994-1996. In addition, he served as a television analyst for the Miami HEAT broadcast team for three seasons before joining the Grizzlies. MIKE FRATELLO’S NBA HEAD COACHING RECORD:
