Charles Oakley was arrested at a Las Vegas casino for cheating, the Nevada Gaming Control Board confirmed in a statement to Sports Illustrated.
Oakley, 54, was arrested on July 8 at 5:30 p.m. at the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas and booked at Clark County Detention Center.
"Mr. Oakley was suspected of adding to or reducing his wager on a gambling game after the outcome was known," the report said.
Oakley played in the NBA for 19 seasons, including 10 years with the New York Knicks. However, Oakley's relationship with the Knicks has been strained for years because of his criticism of James Dolan, Madison Square Garden's chairman.
