2 former NBA players are latest to be charged in gambling scandal

Former NBA players Malik Beasley and Ed Davis have been indicted in the latest round of charges in the government’s sprawling gambling investigation, authorities said Monday.

When he was playing for the Milwaukee Bucks in 2024, Beasley agreed to tailor his performance based on prop bets in certain games, according to an indictment unsealed in Brooklyn.

U.S. Attorney Joseph Nocella Jr. said Beasley and others “turned professional basketball into a criminal betting operation.”


The schemes, he added, “erode the integrity of American sports and victimize the sports-watching public.”

Attorneys for Beasley and Davis did not immediately return messages seeking comment on charges of conspiracy and bribery.
