NBA guard Terry Rozier may get hit with new charges in alleged gambling scheme

Attorney representing Terry Rozier, Jim Trusty, responds to allegations against his client on 'The Will Cain Show.'

Federal prosecutors on Monday said they were willing to seek additional charges against NBA player Terry Rozier in the gambling scandal that rocked the league during the 2025-26 season.

Prosecutors said they sought to file superseding charges of bribery in sports and honest services wire fraud during a hearing. Prosecutors said they had evidence that the former Miami Heat guard solicited and received a bribe amid the alleged gambling scheme.

Rozier filed a motion to dismiss charges against him as his attorneys argued the wire fraud charge is based on a theory that the Supreme Court rejected two years ago and that the government failed to prove the money laundering conspiracy claims.

Prosecutors argued that the defendants lied and cheated to steal money and that it was a classic wire fraud case.

"Our motion to dismiss is based on the idea that they picked an invalid legal theory to prosecute Terry Rozier," Rozier’s lawyer Jim Trusty told ESPN. "We'll see what they do to try to fix that in the superseding indictment, but I expect we'll have problems with it."
