Inside the FBI and NBA’s Explosive Gambling Scandal: What Sports Bettors Are Refusing to Admit
These are the smart statements of what I said after news broke that former Toronto Raptors forward Jontay Porter was arrested, and the FBI was investigating Rozier for his involvement in fixing player props, which led to Rozier’s arrest Thursday. My take has always been: Legalized sports betting isn’t leading to more corruption; the integrity firms launched post-legalization are exposing it.
As a lifelong NBA fan, this story is just depressing. Deep down, I knew this could be happening. Hell, I’ve been joking for years that Rozier was rigging games because every time I bet him or his team, Rozier found a way to screw me. However, watching the FBI’s press conference Thursday was a gut-punch. It’s the adult version of finding out Santa Claus isn’t real.
