As federal prosecutors continue to investigate possible illegal sports gambling on NBA games, they are looking into additional games beyond the seven contests named in a Department of Justice indictment this fall.
Lawyers for the U.S. Attorney’s Office Eastern District of New York have indicated that they are examining more games that may have been tainted as part of the scheme that allegedly ensnared Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier and former Toronto Raptors center Jontay Porter. Rozier was charged this October for what prosecutors said was a role in a sprawling insider information trading ring that allowed sports gamblers to place wagers on NBA games with non-public information.
