A Basketball Australia tribunal have issued Adelaide 36ers player Deng Acuoth with a ten-match ban and a $2300 fine for engaging in prohibited conduct under Basketball Australia’s Gambling and Match-Fixing Policy by betting on NBL games while he was participating in the NBL1 competition.
Nine of the matches will be suspended subject to no additional breaches. Acuoth will serve a one-match ban.
In the spirit of reconciliation Basketball Australia acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
