Wizards re-sign F Josh Howard
Basketball Betting Lines
07/30/2010 -
Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Wizards signed free
agent forward Josh Howard to a one-year deal Friday.
Per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed. However, TNT analyst
David Aldridge reported earlier in the week that the deal could pay the
veteran up to $4 million if he is able to reach incentive clauses.
The Wizards acquired Howard from Dallas in February as part of a seven-player
deal that sent forward Caron Butler to the Mavericks.
He suffered a torn ACL in his left knee a week after he was traded and missed
the remainder of the season after playing in only four games for the Wizards.
"We were impressed with Josh's versatility, how well he fit in with our team
and his attitude and work ethic both before and after his unfortunate knee
injury," said Wizards president Ernie Grunfeld. "His experience playing in a
winning situation makes him an ideal veteran presence for us as we develop our
roster of young talent."
A product of Wake Forest, Howard averaged 12.7 points and 3.6 rebounds in 35
total games last season for the Mavs and Wizards.
Over his seven-year career, with those two teams, he has posted per game
averages of 15.3 points and six boards in 435 contests, 371 as a starter.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year
Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.
Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.
With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.
Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.
Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
