Per Tom Winter of NBC, 18 former players have been arrested and charged for defrauding the NBA’s Health and Welfare Benefit Plan. The list of identified players includes several former Raptors, including Milt Palacio, Sebastian Telfair, Antoine Wright, Jamario Moon, and Alan Anderson.
The plan involved submitting medical claims for procedures that are alleged never to have happened. According to Winter’s reports, 16 of the former players are already in federal custody.
