Unusual betting activity on NBA guard Terry Rozier’s performance in a 2023 game could be connected to a probe into college players wagering on their own teams.

NBA player Terry Rozier is currently under investigation by federal prosecutors over suspicions of an illegal betting scheme, the NBA confirmed Thursday.

The same betting ring Jontay Porter was involved in placed irregular bets on Terry Rozier props in a 2023 game he left early with an injury.

Miami Heat point guard Terry Rozier is under investigation in connection to a sports betting scandal, the NBA said Thursday, months after former Toronto Raptors center Jontay Porter got a lifetime ban over a gambling scandal.

After discovering Jontay Porter’s connection with an illegal sports-betting ring last year, federal prosecutors are now investigating whether Terry Rozier similarly manipulated his performance as part of a gambling scheme.

First reported by the Wall Street Journal, Rozier is being looked into for allegedly manipulating his performances to aid bettors. This situation drew comparisons to the Jontay Porter case last season. Porter was found guilty of helping gamblers win big sums and eventually received a lifetime ban from the NBA.

The NBA issued a statement on Thursday in response to a bombshell new report linking Terry Rozier to the illegal betting scandal that led to Jontay Porter’s lifetime ban from the league.

Unusual betting patterns surrounding the play of then-Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier in a game nearly two years ago are now under investigation by federal prosecutors, part of the same probe that led to the lifetime ban of Toronto Raptors player Jontay Porter,
