Sixers coach downplays club's interest in Iverson

Guard Allen Iverson is generating plenty of talk about a possible return to the Philadelphia 76ers, but coach Eddie Jordan said Sunday that's all there is to it right now.

"I have not been oversaturated with Allen Iverson in my mind or in conversations with our front office," Jordan said. "It's like any other free agent out there. We've talked about a number of people."

Jordan acknowledged Iverson has been discussed -- a change from comments made hours earlier, when Jordan said he certainly "had not talked to anyone about Allen Iverson."

Philadelphia has lost six straight, and point guard Lou Williams is expected to be out eight weeks after undergoing jaw surgery.

Also: The NBA fined Phoenix Suns forward Amare Stoudemire and Charlotte Bobcats center Tyson Chandler $7,500 each for posting to their Twitter accounts during games in violation of league rules.

Also, the league fined Boston Celtics forward Rasheed Wallace $30,000 for publicly criticizing officials after a game Friday.

The UNLV women's basketball team fell behind by 23 points at halftime and lost to Bradley 83-66 in the consolation game of the Lady Rebel Round-Up at Cox Pavilion.

Bradley (2-3) made 9 of 15 3-point attempts in the first half and 11 of 21 overall. The Braves shot 58 percent for the game.

Markiell Styles scored 12 points and Kelli Thompson 11 for the Lady Rebels (2-4), who shot 32.8 percent.

TENNIS

Davydenko ends season with ATP Tour Finals title

Nikolay Davydenko won the first big tournament of his career, running down just about every ball and using a consistent serve to beat U.S. Open champion Juan Martin del Potro 6-3, 6-4 and win the ATP World Tour Finals in London.

Davydenko was coming off his semifinal victory over top-ranked Roger Federer and dominated his service games against del Potro, losing only five points on serve in the first set and eight in the second.

Del Potro had three chances to break Davydenko, but the Russian saved them all to complete a sweep of all three of this year's Grand Slam champions at the season-ending tournament.

Davydenko lost in the final of last year's season-ending tournament for the top eight players in the world, falling to Novak Djokovic.

In the doubles final, Americans Bob and Mike Bryan beat Max Mirnyi and Andy Ram 7-6 (3), 6-3 to win their third season-ending title and claim the year-end No. 1 ranking for the fifth time.

Montreal wins Grey Cup on final-play field goal

Damon Duval kicked a 33-yard field goal with no time left -- after getting a second chance because of a Saskatchewan penalty -- to give the Montreal Alouettes a 28-27 victory over the Roughriders in the Grey Cup at Calgary, Alberta.

Duval missed moments earlier from 43 yards, but the Roughriders were penalized for having 13 men on the field.

Montreal overcame a late 16-point deficit to win the Canadian Football League championship game for the sixth time. The Alouettes' Avon Cobourne was named the game's Most Valuable Player.
