A smarter way to bet

DETROIT(AP) -- Richard Hamilton will miss a third straight game
with a sprained right ankle Tuesday when the Detroit Pistons
host the Orlando Magic.

Hamilton was injured in last week's season-opening win at
Memphis and X-rays on the ankle were negative.

He scored a team-high 25 points in the victory and the
Coatesville, Pa., native has led Detroit in scoring for seven
straight seasons.

The Pistons struggled offensively without him in losses to
Oklahoma City and Milwaukee.
