NBA figures Billups, Rozier, and Jones arrested in federal probe over gambling schemes and game manipulation.
NBA coach Chauncey Billups, Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier, and former Cavaliers assistant Damon Jones were arrested in a federal investigation into illegal gambling and sports betting schemes.
The probe, spanning 11 states and involving organized crime, allegedly included rigged poker games using advanced technology and manipulation of NBA games for betting gains.
Rozier faces charges tied to a 2023 game where he exited early, triggering large bets on his stats, while Billups and Jones are accused of involvement in illegal poker operations.
The NBA previously cleared Rozier in 2023, but new federal allegations have led to his arrest.
All three are expected to appear in federal court, with arraignment pending in New York.
The FBI and U.S. Attorney’s Office described the operation as a major nationwide takedown.
