07/08/2010 - Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Milwaukee Bucks made it official on Thursday and signed guard John Salmons and forward Drew Gooden to multi-year contracts.
Financial terms were not disclosed. However, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel previously reported that Salmons' deal was for five years and $40 million, while Yahoo! Sports said Gooden was locked up to a five-year, $32 million contract.
Acquired in a trade with Chicago last season, Salmons played in 30 games, starting 28, for Milwaukee and averaged 19.9 points, 3.3 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.1 steals.
He was a key part in the Bucks' late-season push for a playoff berth and posted 17.0 points, 4.0 assists, 3.7 boards and 1.4 steals in a seven-game loss to Atlanta in the first round.
Over eight seasons in the NBA, Salmons has career averages of 9.7 points, 2.4 assists and 3.0 rebounds in 610 games with Milwaukee, Chicago, Sacramento and Philadelphia.
Gooden, who was the fourth overall selection of the Memphis Grizzlies in the 2002 draft out of Kansas, split the 2009-10 campaign with Dallas and the Los Angeles Clippers. In a combined 70 games, the veteran posted averages of 10.9 points and 7.7 rebounds.
The journeyman has played for eight teams since entering the league, averaging 11.9 points and 7.9 rebounds per game for his career.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
