Six NBA referees punished for minor gambling offences
The NBA has punished six referees for minor gambling offences, according to a report in the New York Daily News. Citing sources, the newspaper reported Sunday that the six unnamed officials were punished for infractions such as visiting casinos, and that their cases are not related to the Tim Donaghy betting scandal. Donaghy pleaded guilty in August to charges he bet on games he officiated. 
“Nobody’s getting suspended. They were reprimanded and punished, but nobody lost their job,” a source was quoted as saying.
