Wolves' Flynn has hip surgery

Basketball Betting Lines

07/27/2010 - Minneapolis, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jonny Flynn underwent surgery on Tuesday to repair a labral tear and remove extra bone from his left hip.

The Wolves have already planned for Flynn's absence, signing free agent Luke Ridnour last week and trading for Sebastian Telfair on Monday. Flynn is expected to be sidelined 3-to-4 months.

The procedure was performed by Dr. Marc Philippon in Vail, Colorado. Flynn first hurt his hip in the next-to-last game of the 2009-10 season and reportedly aggravated the problem working out this summer.

"We expect Jonny to make a full recovery from this procedure," said Timberwolves president of basketball operations David Kahn. "In the meantime, Dr. Philippon and our medical staff will work together to provide Jonny all the resources necessary to make his recovery as speedy as possible."

Flynn started all 81 games he played as a rookie last season, averaging 13.5 points, 4.4 assists and 2.4 rebounds. The former Syracuse star was selected by the Wolves with the sixth overall pick of the 2009 draft.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
