Feds charge players, gamblers in conspiracy to fix college basketball games

Federal prosecutors have unveiled a betting ring involving NCAA and Chinese Basketball Association game fixing, charging 26 people, including current and former college basketball players. The case involves gamblers placing bets and bribing players with large cash payouts for underperforming during a game, even texting players pictures of stacks of money if they complied. U.S. Attorney David Metcalf said the investigation is ongoing and shows a "significant corruption of the integrity of sports," according to coverage in APNew.com.
