08/14/2008 - Portland, OR (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Portland Trail Blazers guard Brandon Roy underwent successful arthroscopic surgery on Thursday to repair a meniscus tear in his left knee.
The All-Star from the University of Washington learned of the injury following an MRI on Tuesday and is expected to be sidelined four-to-eight weeks.
Portland team physician Dr. Don Roberts performed the surgery at Southwest Washington Regional Surgery Center in Vancouver, Washington.
"We are looking forward to Brandon making a full recovery and expect him to be ready for the start of the regular season," Portland general manager Kevin Pritchard said.
The sixth overall pick by Minnesota in 2006, Roy averaged 19.1 points, 4.7 rebounds and 5.8 assists in 74 games to earn his first All-Star spot in just his second season. In 2006 he garnered the NBA Rookie of the Year after averaging 16.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 4.0 assists in 57 games.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
