This whole post is missing a lot of important context but the claim is pretty accurate.

ESPN and the Associated Press made reports that Rozier was arrested and indicted in October 2025 as part of a federal gambling probe. The court documents they included say he told a friend he’d leave a game early because of an “injury.” That same friend then allegedly bet on his “under” stats.

However, the claim that Rozier intentionally underperformed has not been actually proven. The NBA’s earlier review didn’t find clear evidence of game manipulation, and no conviction has yet been made. So while I can see that the headline is grounded in real reporting, it overstates what’s been confirmed about the situation so far.

I also noticed that the original post just generally wasn’t well supported. The lack of summary to follow up the claim, and only source coming from ChatGPT doesn’t make their information seem very strongly backed.
