Federal prosecutors in the Eastern District of New York are scrutinizing detailed March 2023 betting data on Rozier’s performance despite his uncharged status.

Overview

  • On March 23, 2023 a single bettor placed 30 wagers totaling $13,759 on the unders of Rozier’s points, rebounds and assists in a Hornets-Pelicans game, all made within 46 minutes at a Biloxi, Mississippi sportsbook.
  • At least six sportsbooks in Louisiana and Mississippi flagged the unusual betting activity and U.S. Integrity issued a nationwide alert that led most operators to suspend wagers on Rozier’s props before tip-off.
  • The NBA’s 2023 internal probe found no rule violations and the Mississippi Gaming Commission compelled Caesars to honor the winning bets after initially seeking to void them.
  • Rozier remains uncharged in the Eastern District of New York investigation that expanded after the Jontay Porter case, and his attorney maintains he is not a target of the ongoing federal inquiry.
  • Prosecutors are examining links between the Rozier wagering and a broader illicit sports gambling network that has already ensnared former NBA players such as Jontay Porter and drawn scrutiny on others including Malik Beasley.
