Miami Heat’s Terry Rozier & Portland Trail Blazers Head Coach Chauncey Billups Among Those Arrested In Connection w/ Federal Gambling Probe

The #NBA isn’t playing around this morning (Oct. 23).

Portland Trail Blazers head coach #ChaunceyBillups and Miami Heat guard #TerryRozier were arrested in connection with a federal investigation into illegal gambling. Rozier was taken into custody at an Orlando hotel after Miami’s game against the Magic; he didn’t play in the matchup due to a coach’s decision.

Billups, now in his fifth season leading Portland, was arrested in Oregon in what ABC News described as a “separate but related” illegal betting operation. Former NBA player #DamonJones was also taken into custody. It’s reported that more than 30 people were arrested as part of a yearslong investigation covering 11 states. The Eastern District of New York and FBI Director Kash Patel will hold a news conference later today to outline the allegations. The story is developing.
