ESPN analyzes Donaghy debacle: Which games did he allegedly affect?

More than a decade after Tim Donaghy was sentenced for conspiracy and wire fraud, the disgraced NBA official is back in the news.

Last week, ESPN published an in-depth report detailing allegations that Donaghy not only tipped off gamblers with insider information, but also most likely made in-game calls with the intention of fixing the point spreads of games he officiated.

From their article:

Donaghy favored the side that attracted more betting dollars in 23 of those 30 competitive games, or 77 percent of the time. In four games, he called the game neutrally, 50-50.
