Magic game, unnamed player mentioned in NBA betting indictment

A 2023 NBA game between the Magic and Cavaliers was flagged by federal prosecutors in an indictment revealed Thursday against Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier and more than 30 other people.

Rozier, who did not play in Wednesday’s season-opener between the Magic and Heat at Kia Center, was arrested Thursday morning in Orlando after he was accused of being a part a wide-ranging scheme that involved collaborating with several defendants to fix bets by using confidential information about the league and its teams.

The indictment alleges the scheme included some games that did not involve Rozier, who at the time played for the Charlotte Hornets.
