Avenatti claims UK assistant was aware of college hoops scandal

According to Yahoo Sports, Avenatti claims Nike EYBL director Carlton DeBose discussed several deals for players, including Zion Williamson and Romeo Langford. Kentucky was mentioned, although it’s important to note that there is no direct link between the staff and paying players:

DeBose, according to the motion, also “acknowledged in an exchange of text messages with an assistant coach at the University of Kentucky that Nike was funneling payments to high school players through at least ten different EYBL coaches.”
