Terry Rozier Placed on Leave Following FBI Arrest in NBA Gambling Probe

Miami Heat player Terry Rozier was among over 30 individuals arrested by the FBI in October in connection with two separate, but related, illegal gambling probes. Following his arrest, Rozier was placed on leave by the NBA. He is accused of sharing inside information with bettors, specifically informing a co-conspirator about his expected playing time in a game to facilitate wagers on his unders. This development comes as NBA officials reportedly met with a U.S. Congressional committee on Wednesday to discuss the league's partnerships with sportsbooks and measures to prevent the illegal use of non-public information, a direct response to the arrests of Rozier and others.
