Basketball Betting Lines

02/10/2012 - Sacramento, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tyreke Evans scored 22 points, DeMarcus Cousins added 19 and the Kings made enough free throws down the stretch to take down the Thunder, 106-101.

Marcus Thornton finished with 15 points, including a pair of three-pointers during a late 18-4 run that put Sacramento on top for good.

The Kings scored 28 points off 23 turnovers to win for the fourth time in five games.

Russell Westbrook netted 33 points, Kevin Durant chipped in 27 to go with eight rebounds and Serge Ibaka blocked 10 shots for Oklahoma City, which fell to 2-2 on its five-game road trip.

Daequan Cook drained a three-pointer to put the Thunder on top, 95-87, with 5:56 remaining, and the visitors only made three field goals the rest of the way.

A Thornton three-pointer tied things at 97 with 2:07 to play, and Cousins went 1-for-2 at the foul line after grabbing an offensive rebound the next time down.

Westbrook hit a pullup jumper for a 99-98 advantage, but turned it over two of the next three possessions -- the first coming when he stepped on the sideline after Donte Greene hit a pair of free throws.

Evans added another free throw with 39.2 seconds showing, and following Durant's missed three, Cousins essentially put the game away with two more from the stripe.

The Kings led 23-19 heading to the second quarter, led 57-55 at halftime and trailed 78-76 entering the final stanza. There were nine ties and nine lead changes in the first three frames.

Football Betting: Defensive Rookie of the Year Awards

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.

Bet on NFL Football

Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.

Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.

Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.

Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.

All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.

A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
