MIAMI (4-5) AT CAROLINA (4-5) Time: 8:20 p.m. Line: Panthers by 3 On the air: TV&#8212;NFL Network; radio&#8212;WRNL (910), 8 p.m. Inside slant: Each club depends on its running game, but Dolphins RB Ronnie Brown (foot) is out for the season, and Carolina&#8217;s 1-2 punch of DeAngelo Williams (knee) and Jonathan Stewart (Achilles tendon) is questionable with lingering injuries. . . . Ricky Williams is expected to get the bulk of the carries for Miami and take some snaps in wildcat. . . . The biggest concern for Carolina is defensive end Charles Johnson, who is doubtful after missing his second straight practice with a strained pectoral muscle. . . . Miami tight end Anthony Fasano was ruled out because of a hip injury. . . . Game marks the return of Dolphins offensive coordinator Dan Henning to Carolina, where he was fired after 2006 season. Henning first used the wildcat with the Panthers late in 2006 season, when Williams rushed for seven first downs in eight tries in win over Atlanta. Wrath of Woody: For years, people have been saying Williams is &#8220;one wild cat.&#8220; Now he gets a chance to prove it in the wildcat formation. Miami 23, Carolina 20.           ]]></description>

NBA ROUNDUP  CAVALIERS 114, WARRIORS 108: LeBron James had 31 points and 12 assists, J.J. Hickson added a career-high 21 points and host Cleveland held off a gutsy effort by short-handed Golden State last night. The injuries to O&#8217;Neal and Varejao forced the Cavaliers to activate Delonte West, who has been in and out of the lineup this year while dealing with personal issues. West scored two points in 14 minutes after being inactive for the previous three games. James scored 20 in the second half and finished with five rebounds. Monta Ellis led the Warriors with 23 points and reserve Corey Maggette had 19. THUNDER 100, HEAT 87: Kevin Durant scored 32 points, Russell Westbrook added 24, and visiting Oklahoma City added to its surprising start by beating Miami. An early 20-1 run put the Thunder in control, and a 14-2 burst in the third quarter helped seal it for Oklahoma City. Dwyane Wade scored 22 points on 6-of-19 shooting, and Daequan Cook scored 14 of his 17 in the fourth quarter for Miami. PACERS 91, NETS 83: Danny Granger scored 22 points, Roy Hibbert tied a career high with 19 and visiting Indiana dropped New Jersey to 0-11. Dahntay Jones added 17 points for the Pacers, who extended their winning streak to five. Chris Douglas-Roberts scored a career-high 27 points and Brook Lopez added 26 points and 16 rebounds for the Nets, who still are a long way from the record 17-game opening skids owned by the Miami Heat and L.A. Clippers. - From Wire Reports           ]]></description>

Iverson began an indefinite leave of absence on Nov. 7 to deal with a personal issue after playing only three games with Memphis, all in California.           ]]></description>

WASHINGTON&#8212;The Supreme Court won&#8217;t hear an appeal from a group of Native Americans who think the name of the NFL&#8217;s Washington Redskins football team is offensive. The high court today turned away an appeal from Suzan Shown Harjo. That ends the latest round in the 17-year court battle between the Redskins and a group of American Indians who want them to change their name.           ]]></description>

LANDOVER, Md.&#8212;The Washington Redskins did everything except hold a big neon sign to let the world know that a trick play was in the works. The Denver Broncos still couldn&#8217;t stop it. Life was so much easier when they were 6-0. Energized by the odd sequence that somehow resulted in a first-half touchdown, the Redskins kept the momentum the rest of the game and beat the Broncos&#8217; 27-17 yesterday, ending Washington&#8217;s losing streak at four and extending Denver&#8217;s skid to three.           ]]></description>

GREEN BAY, Wis. - Charles Woodson helped Green Bay&#8217;s defense finally play up to its potential against a big-time opponent, forcing two fumbles and picking off a pass by Tony Romo on the goal line in a 17-7 victory over the Dallas Cowboys yesterday. It wasn&#8217;t a pretty win for the Packers (5-4), but it might have saved their season after back-to-back demoralizing losses.           ]]></description>

LANDOVER, Md. (AP)&#8212;The Washington Redskins beat the Denver Broncos this afternoon. The ramifications for the Broncos (6-3) are huge, and rookie coach Josh McDaniels now has his first genuine rough patch. Three weeks ago, they had a 3&#189; game lead over the San Diego Chargers. While it was hardly an embarrassment to lose to Baltimore and Pittsburgh, the loss to the Redskins (3-6) gave the Chargers a chance to tie Denver for the division lead later Sunday.           ]]></description>

ZURICH (AP)&#8212;FIFA handed Argentina coach Diego Maradona a two-month ban from all soccer activities on Sunday for his expletive-filled rants after his team qualified for the 2010 World Cup. Maradona will miss Argentina&#8217;s exhibition against the Czech Republic scheduled for Dec. 16, but he avoided sanctions that would have kept him from coaching at next year&#8217;s World Cup in South Africa. He also was fined $24,250.           ]]></description>

ASHBURN Having reached his sixth season in the Mile High City, Champ Bailey has now played for the Denver Broncos longer than he did for the Washington Redskins. But he&#8217;s still very much missed. &#8220;I&#8217;m not going to lie,&#8220; the eight-time Pro Bowl cornerback said in a conference call with Washington reporters. &#8220;Everywhere I go outside of Denver, the only thing I get: &#8216;I wish you were still with the Redskins.&#8216; That&#8217;s all I get. Even in this city, there&#8217;s Redskins fans everywhere.           ]]></description>

The Redskins score only 14.1 points a game and now are missing their top offensive player, RB Clinton Portis (concussion). Denver has done little on offense lately, but its strength is its stout defense.           ]]></description>

MIAMI - Joey Porter won&#8217;t be making any tackles this week, either. Less than 24 hours before kickoff, the Miami Dolphins&#8217; outspoken linebacker was ruled out of today&#8217;s game against Tampa Bay because of a coach&#8217;s decision. The Dolphins didn&#8217;t give any information about the reason for the move by coach Tony Sparano. Porter made no tackles in last week&#8217;s loss to the Patriots after calling them cheaters and saying he hated them. New England quarterback Tom Brady said his team was inspired by Porter&#8217;s comments.           ]]></description>

NEW YORK&#8212;The NBA says the review that overturned a winning shot by Chicago&#8217;s Brad Miller was correct and handled appropriately. Referees looked at video replay for about three minutes before determining that Miller&#8217;s shot came after the final buzzer, giving Denver a 90-89 victory on Tuesday night. Though a review is supposed to be completed in a two-minute period, crew chief Mark Wunderlich then asked the truck if there were any additional angles.           ]]></description>

NEW YORK - That travel team back in Virginia a decade ago must have played great defense on the left side of the infield. Washington&#8217;s Ryan Zimmerman succeeded boyhood friend David Wright, a New York Mets star, as the National League&#8217;s Gold Glove third baseman yesterday. In high school, when Zimmerman was a shortstop, the two played together on an AAU team in Chesapeake.           ]]></description>

ASHBURN - Still feeling the effects of a concussion, Washington Redskins running back Clinton Portis was hardly his loquacious self when he met with coach Jim Zorn yesterday and probably will miss this weekend&#8217;s game against the Denver Broncos. &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to rule him out, but it&#8217;s very doubtful that he&#8217;s going to play,&#8220; Zorn said.

BEREA, Ohio - Brady Quinn is getting his second chance at starting. Quinn, benched just 10 quarters into the season for Derek Anderson, will start Monday night&#8217;s game against the Baltimore Ravens. He was pulled at halftime of the Browns&#8217; 34-3 loss to Baltimore on Sept. 27, and will make his return against one of the NFL&#8217;s toughest defenses. Browns coach Eric Mangini decided to go back to Quinn after Anderson went 1-4 as a starter and posted the NFL&#8217;s lowest quarterback rating (36.2). Mangini said he would like to stick with Quinn for the rest of the season.           ]]></description>

NEW YORK - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is being treated for a rare form of leukemia, and the basketball great said his prognosis is encouraging.

The 62-year-old Abdul-Jabbar said his doctor didn&#8217;t give any guarantees, but informed him: &#8220;You have a very good chance to live your life out and not have to make any drastic changes to your lifestyle.&#8220;           ]]></description>
