AllSides Media Bias Rating: Right
Portland Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups apparently leaked insider info to gamblers that his team was planning to tank so they could place bets and win big, federal court documents allege.
Billups was not charged in that scheme, but appears to be identified as “co-conspirator 8” in the indictment.
