NBA player Terry Rozier wins salary dispute; $26.6M released from escrow after arbitrator rules unpaid leave only allowed in abuse cases.
NBA guard Terry Rozier has won a salary dispute after an arbitrator ruled players cannot be placed on unpaid leave except in cases of domestic or child abuse, as per the collective bargaining agreement.
The decision, confirmed on February 2, 2026, allows Rozier’s $26.6 million 2025-26 salary—held in escrow since December following his October arrest in a federal gambling investigation—to be released.
The National Basketball Players Association challenged the escrow, arguing it violated Rozier’s due process and presumption of innocence.
Rozier, who pleaded not guilty to conspiracy charges involving wire fraud and money laundering, has filed a motion to dismiss the case, citing government overreach.
The ruling affirms that players must be paid unless specific abuse-related exceptions apply.
