Basketball Betting Lines

07/21/2010 - San Antonio, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Antonio Spurs officially re-signed Richard Jefferson on Wednesday, reportedly to a contract at least three-years in length according to the San Antonio Express-News.

Jefferson opted out of the final year of his contract on June 30 to test the free agent market, forgoing the $15 million he was originally due in 2010-11.

The Spurs acquired Jefferson in a trade with Milwaukee as part of a three-team deal last offseason. He figured to fit right in with the veteran club, but struggled in recording his lowest numbers since his rookie year in 2001-02.

In 81 games with the Spurs, the University of Arizona product logged 12.3 points and 4.4 rebounds in just over 31 minutes per game.

Jefferson, the 13th overall pick of the 2001 NBA Draft, spent the first seven seasons of his career with the New Jersey Nets. He owns career averages of 17.0 points and 5.2 rebounds in 652 contests.

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
