Fresno State Basketball Faces Gambling Investigation

Fresno State's men's basketball program is under investigation for potential ties to sports gambling, involving three players. Guards Jalen Weaver and Zaon Collins, both top scorers for the team, have been suspended for 'eligibility matters' while Mykell Robinson, a former player, is also being investigated. The investigation was initiated by a tip received by Fresno State, leading to the involvement of the NCAA. Fresno State has not disclosed the extent of the players' involvement but stated that gambling on games could lead to ineligibility. The team, coached by first-year head coach Vance Walberg, is having a challenging season with a record of 5-22. The investigation adds further difficulties as the team struggles with depth issues and a historically poor performance.
