Report: Spurs to re-sign Jefferson
Basketball Betting Lines
07/20/2010 -
San Antonio, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Antonio Spurs are reportedly set to
re-sign free agent forward Richard Jefferson to a long-term contract.
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 San Antonio Express-News is reporting Jefferson is en route to San Antonio
where he will sign the undisclosed deal on Wednesday.
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.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
