Federal prosecutors unsealed two indictments in Brooklyn charging more than 30 people—including Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier, Portland coach Chauncey Billups and former player Damon Jones—in alleged gambling schemes that leveraged insider NBA information and rigged high-stakes poker. Dubbed Operation Nothing But Bet and Operation Royal Flush, the cases detail prop-bet wagers tied to leaked injury data and X-ray-equipped tables linked to mafia families. The FBI called it a criminal enterprise enveloping the NBA. Rozier and Billups were placed on leave as the league pledged cooperation, amid renewed scrutiny of prop bets and glaring media conflicts.
