Basketball Betting Lines

07/21/2010 - Minneapolis, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Minnesota Timberwolves officially announced the signing of guard Luke Ridnour on Wednesday.

According to the Minneapolis Star Tribune, Ridnour agreed to a four-year deal worth close to $16 million last week.

"Luke's talent and experience will be helpful to our team this season and beyond," said David Kahn, the team's president of basketball operations. "He will compete for the starting point guard position this season, but no matter what role Luke is playing, we believe he'll have a positive influence with our young backcourt, much as he demonstrated last season in Milwaukee."

Ridnour, a seven-year NBA veteran, averaged 10.4 points and 4.0 assists over a full 82-game schedule for Milwaukee last season. He averaged 21.5 minutes per game off the bench after starting 50 games for the Bucks a year earlier.

Since being drafted 14th overall out of Oregon in 2003 by Seattle, the 29- year-old has appeared in 516 games for the Sonics and Bucks and averages 9.4 points and 4.8 assists.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
