Hawks sign Erick Dampier

Basketball Betting Lines

02/09/2012 - Atlanta, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Atlanta Hawks have added some depth to a banged-up front line by signing veteran center Erick Dampier to a 10-day contract.

Centers Al Horford and Jason Collins are both sidelined with injuries, leaving just Zaza Pachulia in the pivot. Horford is expected to be out until April with a torn pectoral muscle and Collins went down last week with a sprained left elbow that will likely keep him out for two weeks.

Dampier appeared in 51 games last season for Miami, averaging 2.5 points and 3.5 rebounds.

The 36-year-old Mississippi State product was selected by Indiana with the 10th overall pick of the 1996 draft and has averaged 7.5 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in 972 games over 15 seasons with the Pacers, Warriors, Mavericks and Heat.

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."
