NBA
Sonics-Bucks
News Tribune
Sonics forward Rashard Lewis is expected to play after missing Sunday’s game with a right quadriceps contusion. If he can’t go, he will be replaced by Damien Wilkins, who has averaged 23.5 points the past two games. Coach Bob Hill said he briefly considered playing Lewis at the power forward spot and Wilkins at small forward, but he was not a big fan of Lewis at power forward. The Sonics have lost five of their past six games. They have two games left before the All-Star break. The Bucks are coached by former Sonics assistant Terry Stotts. The Bucks have had two in-flight incidents in the past week in which mechanical problems forced their flights to land.
CBB
Princeton-Penn
Press Notes
The Tigers’ four-game winning streak is their longest since early last season. Penn (14-6, 6-0 Ivy) has not only won four in a row but also eight of its last nine and 11 of its last 13. The Tigers have been shooting well themselves throughout their winning streak, connecting on better than 42% of their three-point shots in that time. The Quakers have won seven of the last eight games in the series. Only twice in the last 15 seasons has there been a split in the season series (1998-99 and 2003-04). Princeton is shooting 38 for 90 from three-point range (42%) and 42 for 52 from the foul line (80.8%) during its current four-game winning streak. The Tigers have shot 40% or better from the field in five straight games after doing that just five times in their first 14 games. Princeton won at The Palestra two years ago and led Penn by 18 points with 7:35 left at The Palestra last season before the Quakers made a late-game comeback and won in overtime. Each of the last two Princeton-Penn games at the Palestra has gone to overtime.
St. Joseph’s-Temple
Press Notes
After back-to-back losses to Top 10 teams, Saint Joseph’s will look to get back on the winning track when it visits crosstown rival Temple. The Hawks have won seven consecutive games against the Owls, including a 59-57 win on January 8. Dave Mallon returned to the starting lineup against GW after missing two games with a sprained ankle. Despite being limited to 19 minutes, Mallon scored 12 points on 6-for-8 shooting, and played aggressively on both ends of the floor. For those who bet halftime lines: The Hawks are coming off consecutive games in which Top 10 teams (Villanova, GW) made double-digit runs in the second half. But they weren’t the only games this year in which that’s happened. Against Xavier, the Hawks held a 29-22 halftime lead but saw XU go on a 15-5 run to eventually take the edge and the 62-58 win. In another home game against Charlotte, SJU led 31-24 at the break, but the 49ers outscored the Hawks, 17-7, to earn the 57-50 win.
Michigan State-Iowa
Press Notes
Iowa (19-6, 8-3) plays its second and final February home game Tuesday, Feb. 14, hosting Michigan State (18-6, 6-4). Iowa is ninth in the RPI Index and 18th in the Sagarin Ratings. Iowa’s strength of schedule is 22nd in the RPI Index and 18th by Sagarin. Iowa has played 11 games against top 50 teams in the RPI Index and the six teams that have defeated Iowa hold a combined record of 98-38 (.721). Iowa joins Duke, Connecticut and West Virginia as one of four Division I teams with 11 games against top 50 teams, with only Duke and Connecticut (10 each) having more wins against top 50 teams. Iowa has posted a 7-3 record against teams in the top 25 rankings at the time of the game, including a 2-1 mark against top 10 teams. For the only time in its basketball history, Iowa has posted 14 consecutive home wins in a single season.
Loyola-Sienna
Press Notes
Siena will play Loyola at Pepsi Arena Tuesday night at 7:30 p.m. The Saints currently sit in a fifth place tie with Niagara at 7-8 in MAAC play, one game ahead of the Greyhounds. Siena defeated Loyola 89-83 in Baltimore February 2.
Bowling Green-Akron
Press Notes
BGSU leads the all-time series 23-13, but UA won the season’s first meeting 77-72 in overtime on Jan. 29 in Bowling Green. The Zips have won two-straight in the overall series, but the Falcons claimed the last meeting at Rhodes Arena (77-72/Jan. 14). The University of Akron men’s basketball team (18-5, 11-2 MAC) attempts to maintain its first-place standing in the Mid-American Conference East Division (tied with Kent State) and to extend its 15-game home win streak when it plays host to Bowling Green (9-14, 5-8) Tuesday. Akron, winners of two straight and five of its last six games, comes off a 77-72 victory at Eastern Michigan on Saturday. Bowling Green, which has dropped four of its last five games, looks to rebound from a 72-64 loss at Toledo on Saturday. UA leads the MAC in five categories – scoring (74.2 ppg), scoring margin (+9.9), assists (16.8), assist-turnover ratio (1.4) and 3-pointers made (8.3 per game). The Zips are second in the league in field goals (46 percent), 3-point field goals (38 percent) and turnover margin (+3.0).
Drake-Illinois State
Press Notes
Illinois State and Drake will meet for the second time in a week. The Redbirds are in the midst of a five-game losing skid, while Drake has dropped six of its last seven, with the lone win coming against Illinois State. The two teams could meet each other again at the Valley Tournament in the play-in game, as the Bulldogs need to win out and have Bradley drop its final three games to stay out of Thursday night’s game. Despite not having anyone on their roster over 6-foot-7, the Bulldogs rank second in the conference in rebounding margin (+5.7), first in rebounding defense (30.5) and first in offensive rebounds (14.08). In addition to having their sights on the school record for points allowed per game, the Redbirds are also in pursuit of the school record for defensive field goal percentage. Currently, ISU foes are shooting 40.1 percent from the field, while the school mark is 40.2 percent, which was set during the 1996-97 season. The Bulldogs rank last in the conference in three-point percentage defense at 38.4 percent. DU also ranks last in three-point field goals made with 5.08 treys per game.
Maryland-Clemson
Press Notes
Clemson starting point guard Vernon Hamilton was injured in the final moments of Clemson’s 67-61 loss at Boston College on Saturday, February 11. The junior from Richmond, VA suffered an elbow injury and a sprained thumb while diving for a loose ball. As a result, he is doubtful for the Maryland game on Tuesday. For the year, Hamilton is Clemson’s top scorer and assist maker and the team’s leader in steals and playing time. He has 65 steals to lead the conference and averages 31 minutes per game. He is ranked among the top 20 in the nation in steals.

The Billikens had rallied from an 11-point second-half deficit to tie the game with 32 seconds remaining.

Through games of Feb. 12, the Billikens’ 10 losses have been to teams with a 150-76 record and .664 winning percentage – George Washington (20-1), Gonzaga (20-3), Iowa (19-6), UW-Milwaukee (17-6), North Carolina (15-6), Ole Miss (13-10), Richmond (11-12), Hawaii (13-8), Dayton (12-13) and Saint Joseph’s (10-11).The RPI rates the Bills’ schedule strength as 47th-toughest in the country.

Connecticut-Villanova
Press Notes
This marks the 19th time that Villanova has faced the No. 1 team in the Associated Press poll. In its previous 18 game, the Wildcats are 4-14 against No. 1 teams. The last time VU faced the nation’s top team was on Dec. 30, 1998, when UConn dealt it a 100-76 loss at the Hartford Civic Center. Its last win over a No. 1 squad also came against the Huskies, a 96-73 triumph at Gampel Pavilion on Feb. 18, 1995. With Saturday’s 61-51 victory over DePaul, Villanova has now won eight consecutive Big East games, bringing it to within two wins of its all-time record of ten consecutive league wins. The `Cats have also won 15 of their last 16 Big East games, with the only loss coming to West Virginia on Jan. 8 at the Pavilion. After a difficult week, much of it spent in the Villanova University Student Health Center, junior guard Mike Nardi hopes to be available for action on Monday night. Nardi began feeling symptoms of tonsillitis on Feb. 4, shortly after Villanova defeated Marquette 72-67. He did not practice in preparation for the `Cats game against Saint Joseph’s on Feb. 7 and watched that contest from the Health Center.
On Friday, he accompanied the team to Chicago but did not practice. He was in uniform against DePaul but Wright elected not to utilize him. Nardi averages 12.2 ppg.
Kansas-Oklahoma State
Press Notes
Kansas (17-6, 8-2) is looking for its eighth straight win at Oklahoma State (13-11, 3-7). The Jayhawks have won three straight road games and are 4-1 in true road contests this season. Oklahoma State (13-11, 3-7) has had some rough luck as of late. The Cowboys have lost two straight and six of their last seven games with five of those decided by two points. One of the hottest teams in the nation, Kansas (17-6, 8-2) is on a seven-game winning streak and has won 14 of its last 16 games dating back to Dec. 10. The Jayhawks are currently 8-2 in Big 12 play and sit one game behind league leader No. 5 Texas at 9-1. KU leads the nation in field goal percentage defense at 36.2 percent and the Big 12 in assists at 18.1 per game. Oklahoma State (13-11, 3-7) is looking to turn around a tailspin that includes two straight losses after a 46-44 defeat at Texas A&M Saturday. The Cowboys have lost six of their last seven with five of those games being decided by two points and two of those in overtime. The Cowboys lead the Big 12 in field goal percentage at 48.9 percent and free throw percentage at 73.5 percent. The Cowboys lost four starters and nine letterwinners from last season’s 26-7 team.
Hawaii-Fresno
Press Notes
Fresno State wraps up its conference series with Hawai’i on Mon., Feb. 13. The Bulldogs dropped the first meeting of the season in Honolulu as the Rainbow Warriors recorded a 73-65 victory on Jan. 21. Fresno State is making its second to last home appearance.
Butler-UW Green Bay
Press Notes
Butler (15-9, 8-4 HL) faces its second key Horizon League road test in 48-hours when it visits UW-Green Bay (13-13, 7-7 HL) on Monday, Feb. 13. The two teams will be meeting for the second time in 11 days. The Bulldogs are looking to bounce back from a double-overtime, 86-83, setback at Wright State on Saturday (Feb. 11). That was Butler’s longest game of the season, and it was quickly followed by the Bulldogs’ longest league road trip of the year to face a UW-Green Bay team that is 11-2 at home! Butler leads the Horizon League and ranks third in the NCAA Division I in fewest turnovers per game (9.2). Butler leads the Horizon League in field goal shooting (.466) and three-point field goal shooting (.392).
NBA
Blazers-Hornets
Scorephone.com
The Hornets Chris Paul missed his second consecutive game with a rib injury as the Hornets won for the third straight time. Paul could return tonight.
Grizzlies-Warriors
Mercury News
Memphis snapped a five-game losing streak Saturday by beating the Los Angeles Lakers. Memphis moved to 12 games over .500 on Jan. 13, but has lost 8 of 12 since then and is tied with New Orleans/Oklahoma City for the sixth-best record in the Western Conference. Things have really taken a downturn for the Grizzlies since they acquired point guard Chucky Atkins from Washington in a trade 11 games ago (three wins). He has started the past seven games. Memphis has scored 90 in just three of the seven and won just two. Warriors injuries: G Baron Davis (ankle) is out. F Troy Murphy (ankle), F Chris Taft (back) and F Zarko Cabarkapa (back) are questionable.

Here are news and notes from Godspicks.com private clipboard. They are compiled from hometown newspapers and the team’s own press releases.
Cincinnati-Pittsburgh
Press Notes
At 18-3, Pitt plays its second straight home game after defeating No. 9 West Virginia 57-53 Thursday evening. The win ceased Pitt’s two-game road losing streak to the likes of No. 1 Connecticut (80-76) and No. 17 Georgetown (61-58). Pitt faced three straight nationally ranked opponents in No. 9 West Virginia, No. 17 Georgetown and No. 1 Connecticut. The Panthers are 4-2 vs. nationally ranked opponents this year after defeating No. 9 West Virginia, No. 24 Wisconsin, No. 10 Louisville and No. 25 Syracuse. Pitt enters the contest with an undefeated 14-0 home record this season. It is attempting to complete its season undefeated at home for just the fourth season in school history. Its current 14-game home win streak ranks tied for third among the school’s all-time longest home win streaks. Pitt is a sterling 62-5 with a .925 winning percentage in the four-year-old Petersen Events Center. Pitt also owns a 25-4 regular season record vs. Big East East opponents in the Petersen Events Center.
NC State-GA Tech
Press Notes
With its longest losing streak since the 1980-81 season now at eight games, Georgia Tech returns home to face the team that began the slide, NC State. NC State (19-4, 8-2 ACC), ranked No. 16 in the AP poll, comes to Atlanta with its best start under head coach Herb Sendek, having won four straight games to solidify its hold on second place in the ACC race. The Wolfpack has won those four games by an average of six points, with two of those needing two overtimes each to decide. The Yellow Jackets’ have fared better on the road than at home during their stretch, having lost the five road games by an average of 5.6 points, last three by a TOTAL of four points. It has been a different story at home, however, those three games having been decided by 13 points. For halftime bettors: Tech has endured long second-half scoring droughts in some of its losses (one field goal over an 11:35 stretch against Maryland, one over a 12:53 stretch against Clemson, scoreless over a five-minute stretch at Virginia Tech, one FG over a 9:27 stretch against Miami). Tech scored just 20 points in the second half of home-court losses to Clemson and Miami.
Massachusetts-Florida State
Press Notes
Florida State, which has won 12 consecutive non-conference home games, plays host to UMass of the Atlantic 10 Conference. Overall, the Seminoles have won seven consecutive and nine of 10 non-conference games this season. The only out-of-conference loss for the Seminoles came at the hands of No. 6/7 Florida (Nov. 25, 66-74) at the Stephen C. O’Connell Center in Gainesville. Florida State is 9-2 at home this season (6-0 in none-conference and 3-2 in ACC games) and enters Sunday’s game against the Minutemen having won two straight. Florida State enters Sunday’s game ranked second in the ACC in scoring offense with an 80.5 points per game average. The Seminoles have scored at least 80 points in 10 of their first 20 games of the season and have already scored better than 80 points in more games this season (10) than they did during the entire 2004-05 season (six).
Ohio-Western Michigan
Press Notes
Sunday’s contest against Western Michigan will be one of just two return games Ohio has with MAC West Division opponents this season. Last Time vs. Western Michigan: In the conference opener for both teams, Ohio rolled past WMU by a final of 87-55 on Jan. 4 in Athens.
North Carolina-Miami
Herald Sun
The Tar Heels have been through a lot since Jan. 14, when the Hurricanes beat them 81-70 at the Smith Center. The No. 23 Tar Heels were left for dead after losing at Virginia, sprang back to life with a win at Florida State, took a hard fall with a home loss to Boston College and then played their best basketball of the season during a three-game winning streak. And all of that was before UNC’s 87-83 loss to No. 2 Duke on Tuesday night, a game in which the Tar Heels trailed by 17 points in the second half before rallying to take a five-point lead with 4½ minutes remaining. After three games in six days, what was the energy level of the Tar Heels as they began looking toward Sunday night’s rematch with the Hurricanes? “Down,” senior forward David Noel said. “We’re tired as all get-out. But at the same time, that’s college basketball. It’s something that we’re through now. We’ve had a day off, and now it’s time to get back to work and prepare for Miami.” Sunday’s game, scheduled for 8 p.m. (Fox Sports South) at the BankUnited Center, is UNC’s first rematch of the season. The Tar Heels host Georgia Tech on Feb. 15 and travel to Wake Forest four days later before finishing up against four ACC teams they already have played. This week’s break, five days in between games, is UNC’s longest until the end of the regular season. The Tar Heels have one more day of preparation than Miami, which lost at home to No. 16 N.C. State 86-77 in double overtime Wednesday night. The Hurricanes had been off for a week before defeating the Tar Heels last month.
UNC has gone 3-1 on the road in ACC games this season, twice beating teams that were undefeated at home before the Tar Heels arrived in town. UNC also defeated Kentucky at Rupp Arena on Dec. 3, another example of a young team exceeding expectations away from its home court. More notes for halftime bettors: UNC has been especially impressive in the second half in its last two road games, holding opponents to a combined 31-percent shooting and outscoring them by an average of 13 points in wins at Florida State and Maryland.

CBB
GEORGIA +4 Tennessee
Georgia is finally playing better hoops fresh of a road win at Vanderbilt and a home win to Bama. They are still an impressive 8-2 at home SU. Georgia is a young team, getting better as young teams do and they believe with four wins in their final seven games, they will make the Dance. At home against a very good Vol team will go a long way towards entering the bubble race.
