Tyreke Evans pleads no contest to reckless driving

Basketball Betting Lines

07/23/2010 - Sacramento, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sacramento Kings guard Tyreke Evans, the reigning rookie of the Year, pled no contest to reckless driving.

Sacramento district attorney Jan Scully made the announcement Friday, saying Evans was ordered to serve three years probation, 80 hours of alternative sentencing and will have to participate in two California Highway Patrol driving programs. Evans' license was suspended for 30 days.

The plea stems from a May 31 traffic stop when Evans was driving up to 130 m.p.h. while crossing lanes on I-80. A motorcycle officer pulled over Evans after he passed a number of vehicles.

"This kind of reckless driving puts the safety of citizens who travel our roads and highways at enormous risk," deputy district attorney Suzanne Salazar stated. "By sentencing the defendant to participate in CHP's driving program for young drivers, he will be required to educate others that this type of driving is dangerous and unacceptable."

Selected with the fourth overall pick out of Memphis as a freshman, the 20- year-old Evans averaged 20.1 points, 5.8 assists and 5.3 rebounds in starting each of the 72 games in which he appeared.

Stanley Cup betting

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.
