SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Aug 28 – Former NBA players
Glen Davis, Anthony Allen,
Sebastian Telfair, Terrance
Williams and 15 others former
players were named in an
indictment unsealed on October
7, 2021 for defrauding the NBA
health fund, in Telfair's
case, for $350,000.
Telfair
nevertheless got a publicly
funded lawyer. Inner City
Press was there, in U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrates Court and live

In late August
2024 counsel to Ronald Glen
Davis asked to delay his
surrender to prison, due on
September 1, so he can finish
a documentary in which he has
an equity stake. The lawyer
writes that Kevin Garnett is
funding the documentary, by
Michael Marangu of Grand Royal
Studios.
On August 28, Judge
Valerie E. Caproni granted the
request: "Application GRANTED.
Mr. Davis's surrender date is
hereby ADJOURNED to Tuesday,
October 22, 2024. On behalf of
the victim, to whom Mr. Davis
owes significant restitution,
the Court hopes that Mr.
Marangu's optimism about the
financial rewards of the film is
warranted. The Court will not
grant any further extensions of
Mr. Davis's surrender date. SO
ORDERED. (Signed by Judge
Valerie E. Caproni on
8/28/2024)."
