I can sort of understand why the other recent NBA player did something like this (can't remember his name, but he was a bench/rotation type player making near the minimum I think), but at the time, Rozier was a multi-millionaire on a $23M/yr, four-year contract.

Why on Earth would he get involved in nonsense like this unless... someone was threatening he or his family, I guess?

Yeah this one is a real head scratcher because of his contract size. Like the only way the money is worth it at that point is if they’re putting huge amounts on the game and that’s going to obviously get flagged.

Like you said maybe someone threatened his family or something else. Given he was out the rest of the season I’m leaning towards there not being anything here but we have almost no info either.
