News & Notes: Davenport Will Return To The Indiana Fever. Cook will start 2nd consecutive game for D-Wade on NBATV (more)


-The Indiana Fever of the WNBA recently announced the re-signing of former Ohio State All All-American Jessica Davenport. Jessica will return for her 2nd season with Eastern Conference Champions after playing the off-season in China. Davenport averaged 8 points int he WNBA finals last season.

-The Miami Heat will attempt to win their 3rd straight game tonight against the Dallas Mavericks on NBA TV. Last night the Heat outscored the Memphis Grizzlies 15-2 in a double overtime period to come away with a 100-87 double OT victory. Newly inserted starter Daequan Cook recorded a career high 3 blocks int the first quarter, he added a triple, but would not score the rest of the game. Mike Conley Jr. had 10 points & 7 assists for the Griz.

-Did some digging on Ken Johnson , and apparently he parted ways with Estonian Club Kalev/Cramo earlier this month. It was not officially announced on the club's website, or any of the major English European sites, but some checking on the fan forums confirmed the split. The absence of Johnson's name of the official roster list my also be a clue. Good luck Ken.

-Interesting tidbit, the leading scorer for Othello Hunter's new club Ilisiakos is former Illinois forward Warren Carter, brother of Josh Carter, a teammate of Je'kel Foster at Oldenburg in Germany.
