Accused Celtics alum Glen Davis professes innocence in NBA fraud case

Big Baby might be in big trouble if he ends up losing yet another court case he has found himself embroiled in; Glen Davis, who is otherwise known by the moniker given to him by former Boston Celtics teammate Kevin Garnett for his sensitivity when they were playing for Boston is among several Celtics alumni currently on trial for their alleged participation in a scam to defraud an NBA healthcare program in exchange for kickbacks.

Davis, for his part, recently on the “VladTV” podcast (h/t to Heavy’s Matt John) to proclaim his innocence in the scam. “This situation is the NBA doing their due diligence, and now you’re just put in a situation where you’re associated,” explained Big Baby.

“Now I’ve got to go to trial because they think I did something that I know I didn’t do,” he added. “I know that I’m innocent.”

Per Davis, the fact that he never received any kickbacks is his argument to go to trial with a “not guilty” plea. “I never got any money,” he explained.

“You’re in a certain group, and now they just want to tag us all in when it’s not that. It’s people taking advantage of a situation, so I’m going to trial because I didn’t do anything.”
