Sportsbooks in multiple states flagged suspicious betting interest on Rozier’s statistics ahead of a Charlotte Hornets-New Orleans Pelicans game on March 23, 2023. An unexpected surge of bets – including 30 wagers in 46 minutes from a professional bettor totaling $13,759 – came in on the under on Rozier’s points, rebounds and assists, causing sportsbooks to halt betting on the veteran guard. Rozier, then with the Hornets, played just 10 minutes before leaving the game, citing a foot injury.
They weren’t even subtle with this. To bet that much on a player and not even a star player, just a role player is suspicious af. Casinos aren’t stupid.
