Here Are the Defendants Named in the N.B.A. Gambling Indictments

Two indictments unsealed in federal court on Thursday jolted professional basketball, involving cases that spanned the N.B.A., online betting companies and the shadowy underworld of organized crime.

One indictment accused a current N.B.A. player and another former player and assistant coach of using inside information about players to defraud betting companies. The second indictment accused a Hall of Fame player, now an N.B.A. head coach, of serving as a lure to entice players into rigged poker games organized by organized crime families in which victims were defrauded of at least $7 million.
