05/24/2010 - Indianapolis, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Indiana Pacers announced on Monday that guard A.J. Price will need surgery to repair a fractured patella in his left knee, and will miss four to six months.

Price suffered the injury in a charity basketball game Saturday night in New York. He will have surgery Tuesday in Indianapolis, where he will also rehabilitate with the Pacers' medical staff.

Price injured the same knee two years ago, suffering a torn ACL while playing in an NCAA Tournament game for the University of Connecticut.

Price, who was selected by the Pacers with the 52nd overall pick in the second round of the 2009 draft, finished his rookie campaign averaging 7.3 points, 1.9 assists and 1.6 rebounds in 56 games (two starts).

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
