Daily Sports Roundup

Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The men's hockey tournament continues in Vancouver, while Purdue takes on Ohio State, and San Antonio battles Indiana.

Tipping off on the hardwood . . .

The NBA offers up a busy slate of 11 games on Wednesday, including San Antonio at Indiana. The Spurs (30-21 SU, 25-25-1 ATS) ended the first half of the season with a 111-92 road win over the Nuggets. DeJuan Blair and George Hill each scored 17 points for San Antonio in that contest, while Tim Duncan picked up 16 points and seven rebounds. The Pacers (18-34 SU, 22-30 ATS) enter Wednesday's matchup on a two-game losing streak. Indiana fell 109-101 at home to Chicago in their last game, despite a 27-point effort from Danny Granger

Also on the NBA hardwood on Wednesday: Memphis at Toronto, Minnesota at Washington, Detroit at Orlando, Chicago at New York, Miami at New Jersey, Houston at Milwaukee, Utah at New Orleans, Phoenix at Dallas, Sacramento at Golden State, and Atlanta at the Clippers. The Hawks (33-18 SU, 32-19 ATS) will be looking to bounce back from an ugly 94-76 loss at home to Miami in their last outing. Josh Smith had a team-high 18 points for Atlanta in that loss, while Joe Johnson added 16 points. The Hawks scored just 12 points in the fourth quarter.

The college basketball schedule features a matchup between two ranked teams on Wednesday, with No. 4 Purdue at No. 9 Ohio State. The Boilermakers (21-3 SU, 11-12-1 ATS) had no trouble getting past Iowa in their last game, winning 63-40 behind 21 points from JaJuan Johnson. The Buckeyes (20-6 SU, 13-13 ATS) blasted Illinois 72-53 last time out, as Jon Diebler tossed in 18 points. Ohio State and Purdue already met on January 12, with the Buckeyes winning 70-66.

Other games involving ranked teams on Wednesday: No. 21 Temple at St. Bonaventure, Nebraska at No. 7 Kansas State, Illinois-Chicago at No. 18 Butler, No. 8 West Virginia at Providence, No. 6 Duke at Miami, Georgia at No. 20 Tennessee, No. 16 BYU at Colorado State, No. 15 Texas at Missouri, Wyoming at No. 12 New Mexico, and Fordham at No. 25 Richmond. The Spiders (20-6 SU, 14-8 ATS) jumped into the rankings this week riding a six-game winning streak; Richmond got past St. Bonaventure by a 68-49 score in their Saturday matchup.

Taking a trip around the rink . . .

Finally, the Olympic men's hockey tournament stages its second day of competition on Thursday, with Finland vs. Belarus, Sweden vs. Germany, and the Czech Republic vs. Slovakia. The Czechs will be looking to ride goaltender Tomas Vokoun into medal position at this tournament; the Florida Panthers netminder is tied (with Canada's Martin Brodeur) for the NHL lead in shutouts with seven on the season, and he's also ranked first in save percentage (.931). The Slovaks are hoping that sniper Marian Hossa (concussion) will be able to participate in Wednesday's matchup; Hossa has been practicing with the team.
