07/13/2010 -
Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Celtics have re-signed guard Ray
Allen, the team announced Tuesday.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but reports from last week said Allen
agreed to a two-year, $20 million contract.
"Re-signing Ray has been a priority of ours this offseason and this move will
allow us to stay at a championship level," said Danny Ainge, Celtics president
of basketball operations.
Allen averaged 16.3 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game over 80
contests last regular season. He also averaged 16.1 points during the team's
playoff run, which ended with a Game 7 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers in the
NBA Finals.
During the championship series, Allen set an NBA Finals record by sinking
eight three-point shots in a Game 2 victory.
"I am ecstatic to be back in Boston," Allen said. "I cannot wait to get onto
the court and get back to work with the rest of the team in pursuit of Banner
18."
Over 14 seasons in the NBA, Allen has averaged 20.5 points in 1,022 games. He
ranks second in NBA history in three-pointers made (2,444) and attempted
(6,176).

As cup crazy fans prepare to place their bets, one online sportsbook ,MySportsbook.com, is offering hockey betting lines on the 2007/2007 Stanley Cup , who will bring it home this upcoming season.
Despite a poor showing in last season's playoffs and the loss of Steve Yzerman to retirement, the Detroit Red Wings are early favourites at this online sportsbook with wagering odds of 6-1. The Wings will look to offensive powerhouse Pavel Datsyuk and newly appointed captain Nicklas Lidstrom to lead one of the league's most prominent franchises.
