While Terry Rozier was reportedly cleared by the NBA of any wrongdoing in its investigation into gambling allegations, the veteran guard remains under federal investigation.

Rozier left the game after playing 10 minutes, citing a foot injury. He finished with 5 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, which were all under the betting line for his statistics. Consequently, all 30 of those bets won.The NBA investigated the betting activity and determined that no league rules were violated, thus leading to reports that Rozier had been cleared by the league. Rozier’s attorney told ESPN that Rozier is no longer part of the federal investigation, which remains open. A spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York would not confirm or deny Rozier’s status in the investigation, according to ESPN.
