The Portland Trail Blazers coach - known for his history as a successful and high-net worth NBA star - was accused of being involved in illegal sports betting and gambling. More than 30 people were indicted by federal prosecutors for their alleged involvement in two separate cases related to fraudulent gambling and sports betting. The NBA placed Billups on leave from his team.
