Game Sparks Love Against Rebounds

Basketball Betting Lines

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - DeMarcus Cousins hopes to build on one of his best games as a professional when the Sacramento Kings shoot for a season-high third straight victory tonight in the Big Easy against the New Orleans Hornets. Cousins had his first career 20-20 game, recording 21 points and a career-high 20 rebounds on Saturday when the Kings edged Golden State in overtime, 114-106, at Power Balance Pavilion.

 

Sacramento, which is just 2-11 as the visitor on the year, will be playing eight of its next 10 games on the road.

 

The Hornets, who are kicking off a four-game homestand tonight, have lost five straight after Saturday's 89-87 heartbreaker at Detroit. Trevor Ariza paced the Hornets attack with 26 points in that one and Greivis Vasquez added 14 points and nine assists as the Hornets also dropped their sixth straight road game.

 

On the injury front for New Orleans, forward Carl Landry went down in the third quarter in Detroit with a second degree MCL sprain in his left knee and is expected to miss three to four weeks. Meanwhile, center Jason Smith suffered a concussion in the fourth quarter and listed as day-to-day.

 

The team could get a boost up front, however, with the possible return of Chris Kaman. After failing to work out a trade for the veteran, the Hornets have brought him back into the fold and he will be eligible to play tonight.

 

"Chris has been working out daily over the past week and is in game condition," Demps added.

 

New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - New York Knicks forward Amare Stoudemire will miss Monday's home game against Utah after the death of his brother. "Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Stoudemire family for their loss," the Knicks said on their Twitter feed.

 

Amare Stoudemire will miss Monday's game as he is heading to Florida. The team also has games on Wednesday in Washington, Friday at home against the Lakers and Saturday in Minnesota.

 

On the season, the 29-year-old Stoudemire has played in 22 games and is averaging 18.2 points and 8.1 rebounds in over 34 minutes.
