The four-time All-Defensive team member signed a hefty $134 million agreement with the Bucks for the next four seasons a few years ago. It is hardly surprising that Holiday has been singled out as a target by criminals attempting to scam his victims given his high-profile earnings.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Most Blocks by a Point Guard in NBA History:<\/p>\n<p>453 \u2014 Jrue Holiday<br \/>450 \u2014 Jason Kidd <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/jkpBMF5RhC\">pic.twitter.com\/jkpBMF5RhC<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NBA World (@NBAW0RLD24) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NBAW0RLD24\/status\/1637288243149275138?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 19, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Darryl Cohen, Brian Gilder, Charles Briscoe, and Calvin Darden Jr. all carried out this precise action. These four people are presently being prosecuted on wire fraud charges, which have a potential sentence of 20 years in prison, according to a story by Kevin Draper of the New York Times. This comes after they used a number of schemes to cheat at least four NBA players out of more than $13 million. Jrue Holiday happens to be one of the victims.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/LuffyRd5\/status\/1639274729973469189?s=20<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn one scheme, three players were allegedly persuaded to purchase more than $5 million worth of life insurance policies at an enormous markup. In another, a fourth player spent $7 million to buy a women\u2019s professional basketball team, but prosecutors said the money never went toward a purchase. In the third scheme, a player spent $1 million to fund a player representation agency that never existed, according to the indictment,\u201d wrote Draper.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Jrue Holiday, wife Lauren, victims in $13 million scam for luxury goods and home renovations<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/CtY8gIWckv\">https:\/\/t.co\/CtY8gIWckv<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Usa Jaun News (@UsaJaunNews) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/UsaJaunNews\/status\/1639212870738255874?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 24, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The report also names Jrue Holiday&#8217;s wife Lauren Holiday as a victim.
