Philadelphia 76ers 2010 Draft Preview

Basketball Betting Lines

06/21/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Philadelphia 76ers have been one of the more active teams early in the offseason, naming Doug Collins as the team's new head coach, and trading disappointing center Samuel Dalembert to the Sacramento Kings.

Collins is a huge upgrade over Eddie Jordan and the Sixers were able to get two solid rotational players for the overpaid Dalembert, center Spencer Hawes and forward Andres Nocioni.

Now comes the third piece to the puzzle, the second overall pick. The Sixers jumped up from six to No. 2 in the lottery and lucked out with a virtually mistake-proof pick in Ohio State combo guard Evan Turner, the college player of the year.

Turner has a tremendous feel for the game and is an extremely efficient offensive player in the mold of Portland's Brandon Roy. He should team with Jrue Holiday to give the Sixers a top-tier backcourt for the next decade or so.

Players under contract: F Elton Brand; C Spencer Hawes; G Jrue Holiday; F/G Andre Iguodala; G Jodie Meeks; F/C Jason Smith; F/C Marreese Speights; G Louis Williams; F Thaddeus Young; F Andres Nocioni

Free Agents: F Rodney Carney (Unrestricted); C/F Francisco Elson (Unrestricted); G Willie Green (Early termination); G Allen Iverson (Unrestricted); F Jason Kapono (Player option)

Draft picks: 1st round (2nd overall)

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
