It earned him and the Spurs a chance at Game 7<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Rozier, 32, was charged Thursday in a superseding indictment in Brooklyn federal court with bribery in sporting contests and honest services wire fraud conspiracy. Superseding indictments are used when prosecutors want to change or add new charges to an existing criminal case.<\/p>\n<p>Rozier has denied participating in the gambling scheme, and has been fighting to have the case dismissed after pleading not guilty to wire fraud conspiracy and money laundering conspiracy charges in December. His attorneys argue in part that the government\u2019s theory of the case \u2014 that he prevented sportsbooks from making informed decisions about accepting certain bets \u2014 runs afoul of a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling that narrowed the federal wire fraud statute. <\/p>\n<p>The new indictment \u201cjust confirms that our motion to dismiss was righteous \u2014 new charges, new theories, but all just an effort to make something stick,\u201d Rozier\u2019s attorney, Jim Trusty, wrote in an email to The Associated Press. <\/p>\n<p>Rozier was arrested in October along with former NBA player Damon Jones, who pleaded guilty last month for his role in schemes to defraud major sportsbooks including DraftKings and FanDuel. Others charged in the case include sports bettor and influencer Marves Fairley, who pleaded guilty Thursday to conspiracy, bribery and other federal charges in connection with gambling schemes targeting basketball games in the U.S. and China.<\/p>\n<p>Rozier remains free on $3 million bond. The case has kept him off the court this season. <\/p>\n<p>The new indictment alleges that Rozier not only defrauded sportsbooks, but also the NBA and the team he was playing for at the time, the Charlotte Hornets.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/raleighmovingnews.com\/?p=1752\">Alex Smalley back in position to win at Colonial after runner-up finish at PGA<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Rozier is accused of conspiring with gamblers to leave a game early, citing a lingering lower leg injury, so they could cash in on more than $250,000 in bets that his points, assists and other totals would be lower than what the sportsbooks had set as betting lines.<\/p>\n<p>Not all of the bets were successful because Rozier collected four rebounds, which was more than the betting line, the superseding indictment said. As a result, after the game, Rozier and his co-conspirators negotiated a discount on his bribe, cutting it from $100,000 to about $70,000, the superseding indictment said.<\/p>\n<p>The new indictment against Rozier was filed within hours of the guilty pleas by Fairley, who goes by the name \u201cVezino Locks\u201d on Instagram. As part of his plea, Fairley admitted to prosecutors\u2019 allegations that he used insider information to get an edge when betting on NBA, NCAA and Chinese Professional Basketball League games \u2014 including paying Rozier\u2019s longtime friend $100,000 in exchange for a tip that Rozier was going to leave a game early.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fairley\u2019s attorney Eric Siegle said his client \u201cdeeply regrets and is ashamed of his conduct.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy publicly acknowledging his guilt and conduct today, Marves is taking the first step toward atoning for his wrongful conduct and to starting his \u2018second half\u2019 on the right foot,\u201d Siegle said. ____ Associated Press reporter Michael R.
