  • Magic hand Suns first loss, 122-100 (AP)

    Phoenix Suns forward Amare Stoudemire, right, gets around Orlando Magic forward Ryan Anderson(notes) (33) in the second half of an NBA basketball game in Orlando, Fla., Wednesday, Nov. 4, 2009. Orlando won 122-100.

    Ryan Anderson admits he's been joking with Rashard Lewis about who will be the Orlando Magic's starting power forward when the All-Star returns from suspension. For now, it's no joke: Anderson is filling in just fine. Anderson had 20 and 10 rebounds, Dwight Howard scored 25 and the short-handed Orlando Magic defeated the previously unbeaten Phoenix Suns 122-100 on Wednesday night.

  • Anderson to start at QB for Browns (AP)

    FILE -- This photo from Aug. 26, 2009, shows Cleveland Browns quarterback Derek Anderson(notes) at the Cleveland Browns NFL football training camp in Berea, Ohio. Anderson will replace Brady Quinn(notes) and start at quarterback for the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, Oct. 4, 2009, against Cincinnati.

    Two years ago, the Cleveland Browns turned their woeful offense over to Derek Anderson and won 10 games. Eric Mangini can only hope it happens again. With his first season in Cleveland already unraveling, Mangini benched Brady Quinn in favor of Anderson, who rode a similar opportunity in 2007 to an appearance in the Pro Bowl.
