NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

12/27/2008 - Syracuse, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Syracuse guard Eric Devendorf has reportedly completed his community service as part of a suspension for violating the university's code of conduct and is set to return to the basketball team.

The Syracuse Post-Standard said Devendorf finished his 40 hours of community service, part of his punishment for striking a female student in early November, and was back at practice on Friday. He could play as early as Tuesday when Syracuse hosts Seton Hall in the Big East opener.

Devendorf missed just two games, victories over Memphis and Coppin State, as he was allowed to play during the appeal process.

The junior from Bay City, Michigan is averaging 13.9 points in 11 games for the 17th-ranked Orange. He missed most of last season with a knee injury.
