Basketball Betting Lines

08/26/2010 - Geneva, Switzerland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - FIBA, the world governing body of basketball, announced Thursday disciplinary action against four players for their respective roles in a fight that broke out between Greece and Serbia at a friendly tournament last week.

Hardest hit was Serb Nenad Krstic, who was levied with a three-game suspension that will start in conjunction with the opening of the 2010 FIBA World Championships on Saturday.

The fight originally broke out between Antonis Fotsis of Greece and Milos Teodosic of Serbia toward the end of the game, which sparked a larger melee that saw Krstic hurl a chair toward a throng of players.

Teodosic was hit with a two-game suspension, while Fotsis and teammate Sofoklis Schortsanitis also garnered two-game bans for Greece. In addition, each of the national basketball federations were penalized 20,000 Swiss francs.

The 2010 FIBA World Championships get underway in Turkey on Saturday.
