Two top US basketball figures have been arrested in connection with separate, but related, illegal gambling investigations.
It relates to fixed NBA basketball matches and rigged poker games which allegedly involved the mafia.
Miami Heat player Terry Rozier was taken into custody for his alleged involvement in a betting ring.
In a separate case, Portland Trailblazers head coach Chauncey Billups was arrested over links to high stakes poker games.
The two separate but connected cases were of “mind boggling proportions”, FBI Director Kash Patel said in a press conference.
