UNDATED (AP) – The Oklahoma City Thunder were minutes away from falling behind three games to one in the first round of the NBA playoffs until backup Reggie Jackson bailed them out.

Reggie Jackson scored poured in a playoff-best 32 points and the Thunder square their series at two games apiece by beating the Grizzlies 92-89 in overtime at Memphis. Oklahoma City blew a 14-point lead and trailed late in regulation scored five straight points in the final minute of the fourth quarter.

Jackson managed to outscore teammates Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, who scored 15 points apiece and shot a miserable 11 for 45.

The series moves back to Oklahoma City for Game 5 on Tuesday.
