League expands investigation; no evidence implicating LeBron James

The NBA has asked the Los Angeles Lakers and several other teams to provide phones and internal documents as part of its renewed gambling investigation, following recent arrests by the FBI involving Terry Rozier, Chauncey Billups, and Damon Jones on fraud-related charges.

According to reports, Jones allegedly shared information about LeBron James’ availability to facilitate betting against the Lakers. The league’s request includes property from trainer Mike Mancias and executive Randy Mims, both long associated with James. Neither has been charged nor named in federal documents.

There is no evidence implicating LeBron James, and sources emphasize the Lakers are among several teams cooperating with the probe. The NBA’s move follows pressure from Congress and aims to reinforce confidence in the league’s anti-gambling integrity policies.
