The NCAA is calling for changes to gambling laws and regulations to better protect student athletes and officials from betting-related manipulation, according to NCAA director Clint Hangebrauck.

Hangebrauck discussed concerns about how bets can be manipulated during an appearance on "Here's the Scoop," emphasizing the need for lawmakers to amend current laws and regulations. The NCAA's push for regulatory changes comes as sports betting continues to expand across the United States.

Meanwhile, the NBA has launched an investigation into the Milwaukee Bucks' handling of their player participation policy, specifically related to star player Giannis Antetokounmpo. The investigation focuses on how the team managed Antetokounmpo's injury status and participation decisions.

The NBA's probe into the Bucks comes as the league maintains strict policies regarding player participation and injury reporting. Teams are required to follow specific protocols when managing player health and availability, particularly for marquee players like Antetokounmpo.

Both developments highlight ongoing challenges professional and collegiate sports organizations face in maintaining integrity around player participation and betting-related concerns. The NCAA's call for legislative action and the NBA's investigation into team policies reflect broader efforts to address these issues across different levels of organized sports.
