News from August 6.

The NBA suspended Rashard Lewis (Orl) for 10 games for violating the
league's anti-drug program for testing positive for an elevated 
testosterone level.  Lewis said he had used a powered supplement mixed 
into smoothies and was unaware that it would cause a violation, but
accepted the punishment and apologized.

New Orleans named Robert Pack as an assistant coach.
