About this listen
Basketball betting scandals are once again under scrutiny as Dan Riley reflects on how gambling continues to endanger the integrity of the sport. From historic cases at Arizona State, Tulane, and the infamous CCNY scandal to modern-day concerns, basketball has long faced the corrosive influence of betting. Unlike other sports, basketball’s fast pace and scoring structure make it especially vulnerable to point-shaving and insider manipulation. Players at all levels face serious risks, while fans are left questioning what they’re really watching.
Dan Riley explores why consistent education, accountability, and stronger safeguards are essential if basketball is to protect its future and preserve trust in the game.
💡 This reflection reminds us that protecting the integrity of basketball isn’t outdated — it’s critical.
