Former NBA player Terry Rozier arrived at Brooklyn Federal Court on Monday (April 27) for a court hearing after being indicted for his alleged role in an illegal gambling ring.

Rozier, 32, pleaded not ‌guilty in December to conspiracy charges involving wire fraud and money laundering.

Rozier is accused of alerting gamblers that he would leave a ⁠game early while playing for the Charlotte Hornets in March 2023. The gamblers then bet large sums on the "under" figures for Rozier's ⁠stats in that contest.

Rozier averaged 10.6 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 64 games (23 starts) for the ⁠Heat last season. His career averages through 10 NBA seasons for the Boston Celtics, Charlotte and Miami are 13.9 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.5 assists.

Rozier was waived by the Miami Heat on April 10.
