Basketball Betting Lines

03/18/2010 - Auburn Hills, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Detroit Pistons guard Rodney Stuckey has been cleared to return to game action, starting with Friday's road game against Indiana.

Stuckey has missed the last six games after collapsing on the bench of a March 5 game at Cleveland. He was taken away on a stretcher and then spent time in a hospital, but tests for any possible life-threatening condition have reportedly come back negative.

Stuckey and Ben Wallace participated fully in practice Thursday and both are expected to be on the court against the Pacers. Wallace hasn't played in the last eight games due to a sore right knee. He is averaging 5.3 points and 9.1 rebounds in 60 contests this season.

A third-year pro, Stuckey is averaging 17.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 5.0 assists over 62 games this season. He and Wallace are expected to be available as reserves for Friday's game.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
