Federal prosecutors indict six in alleged NBA betting conspiracy
Federal prosecutors in the Eastern District of New York charged six people over an alleged betting scheme involving four NBA games during the 2023-24 season. Prosecutors allege the group wagered more than $75,000 and made net winnings exceeding $121,000; Malik Beasley’s lawyer denied the allegations, and the NBA said it was reviewing the indictment.
The case concerns alleged manipulation of player performance and betting activity, with potential implications for sports-betting integrity.
