Police have arrested 18 former NBA players for defrauding $ 4 million of the North American League Health and Welfare Benefit Plan, as reported by Tom Winter and Jonathan Dienst (NBC). The defendants, facing federal charges, are: Milt Palacio, Sebastian Telfair, Antoine Wright, Darius Miles, Ruben Patterson, Eddie Robinson, Gregory Smith, Glen Davis, Jamario Moon, Terrence Williams, Alan Anderson, Tony Allen, Shannon Brown , William Bynum, Melvin Ely, Christopher Douglas-Roberts, and Tony Wroten.
Among those names, Tony Allen stands out.. NBA champion with the Boston Celtics in 2008, the guard is a legend in the Memphis Grizzlies, who will retire his number 9 on January 28, 2022, and one of the great defensive specialists of his time: three times in the Best Quintet Defensive and three others in the Second. Also outstanding are Glen Davis, Allen’s teammate in the Celtics champions, and that of two former CBAs such as Antoine Wright and Alan Anderson.

Wright played for Estudiantes in 2011 … although he was unlucky. It was the year of the club’s first relegation, standing in the offices, and the forward did not last long, only 13 games. Enough to get a lot of songs about his busy night life from Dementia. After starting the season like a shot against Valencia (22 points and 25 valuation), he soon fell apart, with the greatest negative in valuation in history in the Endesa League with -19 against Barcelona, the club in which he played Anderson a season earlier.
Alan Anderson
Basketball globetrotter, the American forward also played 30 games in ACB. He won the Endesa League that year as well as the Copa del Rey, in which he was named MVP. After leaving the Catalan team, he tried in China before returning to the NBA: Toronto, Brooklyn, Washington and Clippers.
