Portland Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups was spotted leaving a courthouse in Portland, Oregon, following his arrest in a federal probe into illegal gambling. Prosecutors allege that Billups took part in rigged poker games, leveraging his fame as a former NBA star to draw players into underground matches manipulated by criminal organizers. The NBA announced Thursday that Billups has been placed on “immediate leave” and will not return to coaching for the foreseeable future.
