Miami Heat waived Terry Rozier in April, and now he's facing new charges in an alleged gambling scheme. Rozier pleaded not guilty to new charges of sports bribery and honest services wire fraud conspiracy. Federal prosecutors claim Rozier solicited and accepted a $100,000 bribe to tip off bettors about his plan to leave a game early due to an injury. Rozier was playing for the Charlotte Hornets and logged just 9½ minutes during a March 23, 2023, game in New Orleans before he checked out with an alleged injury. Prosecutors aren't accusing Rozier of specifically throwing the game, per se. Instead, they say Rozier's 'purported injury' allowed his co-defendant bettors to place 'more than $200,000 in wagers predicting Rozier's 'under' statistics.' Rozier averaged 21.1 points and 5.1 assists a game that season. He scored just five points that evening. Rozier wore a gray suit and appeared relaxed at his appearance Wednesday before Magistrate Judge Lara K. Eshkenazi in Brooklyn. He created a 'predetermined bribe arrangement' with other co-defendants, including Marves Fairley and De'Niro Laster, to withdraw from the game so lucrative wagers could be placed, according to the superseding indictment. Rozier is alleged to have played better than anticipated and collected four rebounds during the game, causing his bribe to drop to $70,000, prosecutors said. Federal prosecutors also say in the superseding indictment that Rozier deprived the NBA and the Hornets 'of the intangible right of the honest and faithful services of Rozier through bribery and kickbacks.' After the hearing, Rozier's attorney, Jim Trusty, spoke about his request for the court to modify Rozier's release conditions by lifting a no-contact restriction involving members of the Hornets. Trusty has argued that leaving the condition in effect could jeopardize Rozier's ability to participate in the NBA as the free agency process begins this month. Rozier already faces two federal charges — conspiracy to commit wire fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering — from the initial indictment filed last year. He was accused of leaking nonpublic information about his plan to underperform at the 2023 game. The fraudulent wagers resulted in tens of thousands of dollars in profits for bettors, prosecutors said. Rozier pleaded not guilty to the initial charges last year. In December, he requested that the case be dismissed, arguing that the government had overstepped by charging him with fraud. The judge presiding over the case has yet to rule on Rozier's request to throw out the case. Last year, federal prosecutors in the Eastern District of New York charged Rozier and several co-defendants with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering. Rozier's case is ongoing, and he has pleaded not guilty to the new charges.
