The NBA has asked multiple teams, including the Los Angeles Lakers, to hand over documents and other property as part of its investigation into illegal sports gambling, six league sources told The Athletic.
The league, under scrutiny from Congress, is seeking new information based on the federal charges brought last month by the Department of Justice.
Committees from the House and the Senate asked the NBA why it did not uncover credible evidence that players and coaches participated in a scheme to use private information to help bettors win money after Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier and Portland Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups were arrested and charged last month.
