NCAA Scandal

A federal indictment unsealed on January 16, 2026, in Pennsylvania has charged 26 individuals, including over a dozen college basketball players, in a widespread scheme to fix NCAA and Chinese Basketball Association games through point-shaving. The plot targeted games from the 2023-24 and 2024-25 seasons, with players allegedly underperforming to benefit bettors. Four North Carolina natives, including a former North Carolina A&T player, are among those implicated.
