Part 1: Tim Donaghy on Becoming an NBA Referee, Making $300K a Year

--------

In this clip, Tim Donaghy shares his experience serving his 15-month jail sentence. He had to serve the full sentence after a misdemeanor led to extra time. After release, he faced uncertainty about supporting his four daughters as an ex-convict. He was able to get by thanks to his supportive family and employment at a gambling treatment center. Tim spoke about a difficult incident involving his daughter's drug abuse, during which he was arrested but later released after the charges were dropped. Tim also commented on the irony of the NBA promoting legal sports gambling and organizations capitalizing on the tax revenue. In 2021, he joined Major League Wrestling as a referee, which was financially rewarding. When asked about players betting on themselves, Tim affirmed this was happening in sports like the NBA, despite it being a contested ethical issue.
