Basketball Betting Lines

09/07/2010 - Orlando, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Orlando Magic on Tuesday named former NBA player Adonal Foyle as the team's director of player development.

The 35-year-old Foyle retired in August following a 13-year career. He was originally selected with the eighth overall pick in the 1997 draft out of Colgate by Golden State.

In 733 career games, the 6-foot-10 Foyle posted averages of 4.1 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.63 blocks with the Warriors, Orlando and Memphis. His 1,140 blocks with Golden State, where he spent his first nine seasons, is a franchise-best.

Foyle did not play last season for Orlando after undergoing knee surgery in October. He appeared in only two games during the 2008-09 season.

In his new position, Foyle will provide support for the overall development of the players, act as a liaison between players and management, and give assistance to the basketball operations department.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds  
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
