Terry Rozier Resolves $8.2M Tax Lien Amidst Betting Charges

Miami Heat player Terry Rozier, facing criminal sports betting charges, has resolved an $8.2 million federal tax lien. The IRS filed a certificate of release on Oct. 29, confirming the lien, assessed in August 2023, was satisfied. Rozier is accused of tipping a friend in a 2023 betting scheme on his performance with the Charlotte Hornets, where he exited a game early. His attorney states only $9,000 was owed and paid. Rozier was placed on immediate NBA leave after his Oct. 23 arrest; his arraignment is next month, where he plans to plead not guilty.
