Terry Rozier will be able to get paid
This is the first victory for Terry Rozier. In fact, three months ago, the Heat and the NBA decided to freeze his salary this season, which is $26.6 million, after his arrest as part of a federal investigation into questionable betting related to its own performance (because of too much debt?).
Until the court proceedings are concluded, various payments have been placed in an escrow account, until the ringleader’s situation is clarified.
The players’ union immediately stepped up to the plate, recalling that ” the decision to suspend Terry without pay violates the presumption of innocence and is inconsistent with the provisions of the collective bargaining agreement ».
But three months later, the situation is changing: while Terry Rozier is still not cleared to play again, pleading not guilty while he was awaiting trial, an independent arbitrator ruled in his favor. So, the player Miami will receive all withheld amounts.
And now, the transfer?
« Terry won today on the principles of contract law and the collective bargaining agreement between the league and the players, but the most important principle at issue is the presumption of innocence. » communicated attorney’s son, Jim Trusty. « Today’s arbitration decision reminds the NBA that it cannot ignore this key concept just because it is a high-profile case. »
Concerned about “protecting your integrity”The NBA could freeze Terry Rozier’s salary without worrying about domestic violence or child abuse, but not for this shady betting scandal. So this is a strict application of the regulation.
« We are pleased with the arbitration award and remain committed to ensuring that Terry’s due process rights are protected and that he enjoys the presumption of innocence throughout this process » the spokesman of the players’ union (NBPA) was obviously happy.
Released on bond, but fired by the Heat, Terry Rozier could possibly be transferred until Thursday. The NBA, however, will have to accept this situation. unpublished “and” unhappy “, as Adam Silver pointed out in December.
Big strategic question, knowing that Giannis Antetokounmpo has been announced for several days in Florida and that the big contract of “Scary Terry” could prove valuable, in order to balance the salary…
