What BBN said about it

   Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorEric Earnest, fifty-four, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud in federal court in Brooklyn, and his attorney says Chauncey Billups never gave him inside information he used on any bet.

   Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorLook, Billups hasn't been charged in that part, but he's pleaded not guilty in the separate rigged poker case, and Earnest admitted he played in poker games rigged against certain players starting in April 2019. That's a lot of stacked decks, I'm telling you.
