Den seneste sportsvådeskandale i NBA har ført til det første skyldserkendelse. Ifølge Associated Press har den tidligere NBA-spiller og assistenttræner Damon Jones indrømmet skyld i én anklage om sammensværgelse om wirefraud.
Under retten udtalte Jones, at han havde brugt "indsideinformation, som jeg har fået gennem mine relationer som tidligere spiller".
"Jeg vil gerne sende mine dybeste undskyldninger til retten, min familie, mine kolleger og National Basketball Association," sagde Jones.
Jones var blevet anklaget for at have delt indsideinformation om blandt andet LeBron James og Anthony Davis. Han stod over for to anklager i den omfattende sag: ulovlig brug af indsideinformation og en påstået manipuleret pokerspilsaftale.
Retssagen er sat til at finde sted den 6. januar 2027. De relevante strafferammer foretager sig en dom på mellem 21 og 27 måneder.
