Shaquille O'Neal is 'ashamed' of the people allegedly involved in the NBA gambling scandal that just came to light. Charles Barkley simply calls them 'stupid.'

Damon Jones and LeBron James have reportedly been friends since their time playing for the Cavaliers together in the mid-2000s.

More details are emerging about the inside info Damon Jones allegedly provided about LeBron James’ injury status. Jones, a former NBA guard who later became an assistant coach in the league, was arrested by FBI agents Thursday because of his supposed involvement in multiple illegal gambling rings.
