NBA Commissioner Adam Silver states that he is "very upset" after the American basketball league was shaken by a game-fixing scandal.

My first reaction was that I became very upset, says Silver in an interview with Amazon Prime.

There is nothing more important for the league and its fans than the integrity of the competition.

Among others, NBA star Terry Rozier – teammate with Swede Pelle Larsson in Miami Heat – has been arrested suspected of involvement in a betting scam. A total of over 30 people have been arrested in separate, but related, cases of illegal betting, according to the FBI.

Terry Rozier is accused of having participated in an illegal betting scam where private insider information from the NBA was used.

A total of seven matches between February 2023 and March 2024 are said to be part of the scam.
