Betting scandal in the NBA: The FBI arrests Billups and Rozier
The coach of the Portland Trail Blazers and the player of the Miami Heat have been arrested
Miami Heat shooting guard Terry Rozier and Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups were arrested early Thursday morning as part of an FBI investigation into sports betting, according to Shams Charania (ESPN).
The Eastern District Attorney's Office in New York and FBI Director Kash Patel will hold a press conference to announce details of the arrests stemming from this operation. Rozier was arrested at a hotel in Orlando, Florida, hours after Miami Heat lost to Orlando Magic. The player did not participate in that game due to a coaching decision. His name had already appeared in March 2023 in reports about suspicious activity in betting houses, involving several operators.
