The FBI just detonated a nuclear bomb on professional basketball. Gary Franchi's RAW FEED segment exposes Operation Royal Flush - the biggest sports corruption scandal in American history. Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups arrested. Miami Heat star Terry Rozier perp-walked. La Cosa Nostra running NBA games like their personal casino for years.
FBI Director Kash Patel dropped the bombshell at a Brooklyn press conference: "This is an illegal gambling operation and sports rigging operation that spanned the course of years." Over 30 arrests across 11 states, including 13 members of the Bonanno, Gambino, and Genovese crime families. The charges: wire fraud, money laundering, extortion, robbery, and illegal gambling involving "tens of millions of dollars."
The most explosive revelation: Terry Rozier faked an injury on March 23, 2023, leaving after just 9 minutes so mob associates could cash $200,000 in under bets. NYPD Commissioner confirmed "players altered their performance or took themselves out of games to make sure those bets paid out." The proceeds were delivered to Rozier's home where they counted mob money.
But it gets worse. The poker operation used x-ray tables with hidden cameras in rigged shuffling machines. Signals went to a mafia house, then back to a "quarterback" at the table who directed three corrupt players to fleece unsuspecting "fish" victims. Chauncey Billups, Mr. Colorado himself, caught running this scheme with organized crime families.
U.S. Attorney called it "a financial pipeline for La Cosa Nostra" proving the mafia is "alive and well." Every game potentially scripted, every championship possibly rigged, every bet you made potentially stolen by this criminal enterprise. Damon Jones also arrested, making three current or former NBA figures caught red-handed with the mob.
The Wall Street Journal had been investigating Rozier since January over "strange betting patterns" in that Charlotte game. The NBA cleared him, but the FBI knew better. This connects to Jontay Porter's lifetime ban for throwing games - the corruption runs deeper than anyone imagined. From x-ray poker tables to fake injuries, from mob money to rigged championships, the NBA's integrity lies in ruins.
Kash Patel declared: "Under President Trump's administration, there is no room for any type of criminal behavior, be it on the world's largest stage or in the back rooms of tiny parlors." The timing is perfect - as the new NBA season tips off, its biggest stars are getting perp-walked for selling out to organized crime.
Gary Franchi reveals how this scandal destroys everything fans believed about their heroes. Kids wearing jerseys of players who took mob money to miss shots. Families spending thousands on tickets to watch scripted games. March Madness brackets contaminated by mafia manipulation. This isn't Pete Rose betting on baseball - this is organized crime owning basketball.
