Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday was defrauded by former Morgan Stanley investment advisor Darryl Cohen, a Manhattan jury concluded in convicting Cohen of wire fraud and investment advisor fraud on Tuesday. Prosecutors from the Southern District of New York charged Cohen and others in 2023 for orchestrating a scheme to defraud Holiday, along with former Houston Rockets forward Chandler Parsons and former New York Knicks guard Courtney Lee, of over $5 million. Cohen was accused of exploiting his advisory and fiduciary relationships with these players.
Cohen’s former clients — Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday and former players Chandler Parsons and Courtney Lee — all took the stand against him at trial. They testified that Cohen got them into viatical policies, in which investors purchase insurance on another person, betting the payout on that person’s death will exceed the cost of the premiums.

Chandler Parsons on Luka Doncic: The Luka stuff, it's not good. And it's exhausting just from a from a standpoint of watching. It's got to be exhausting from an effort getting back on defense. Like I remember when I'd play my coaching staff then if I even looked at the ref and had a split second of not getting back on defense, it was rewound and rewound and rewound cuz you're worried more about what happened individually than the team and getting back on defense. This happens all the time for a guy for a guy like Luka and I don't think it's going to stop because again like you said he's 26 years old. This is almost be who he is and he plays very passionately and he's got fired. He cares, but he's got to find a way to control this a little bit because it is a bit exhausting for a player of his talent and his level, especially a guy that's a foul baiting type of guy, which is a talent now, just like SGA is, just like Jaylen Brunson, that's not even a knock to me anymore.
Chandler Parsons: Is there a world in which Stephen Curry is not possibly a Warrior? Does he ask out? Do they let him like decide to mutually let him go and shop around? Like, how does that situation find? Sam Amick: No, I don't see it. No shot. It's funny because it's like the question, A, is fair, but B, it gets asked outside of the Bay and outside of Northern California a whole lot more than it gets asked here. Because there's just an energy here where it's like, first of all, Steph has never sent any signals that he has any intention of anything other than finishing his career with the Warriors. He still has good relationships with Joe Lacob and Mike Dunleavy Jr and the staff. He still has a level of belief, I think, in them. I mean it's pro sports, so never say never.

Chandler Parsons: "This dude is so checked out. He is so unhappy. He is frustrated, and I don't know every detail of the situation. I don't know what happens in that facility. I know he's becoming a negative impact on this franchise, and on—and in—that locker room. That's just what it feels like. It's always something, man. It's never about basketball. It's never about, you know, him doing what he does best—what he did for years. And I just feel like the last couple years, it's just been all downhill. And again, the media is just doing their job, dude. They're asking Giannis, they're asking Trae Young—like, this is just part of the business. And some uncomfortable questions you have to answer. You have to be a professional. You have to be responsible enough just to answer the questions and take it—and be a pro. And he didn’t. He was just laughing, covering his face... Like, this isn’t a guy that you want to build a franchise around."
Chandler Parsons: Me, Boogie, and Lou Will all agree that LeBron's the GOAT.
Predict what happens next." Chandler Parsons: "Klay Thompson—out of there. Traded. I think he’ll be the first one to go—not that he’s the problem—but teams like the Orlando Magic need shooting. He makes sense for someone like that. I think there’s going to be a domino effect with a lot of moving parts. But at the end of the day, there is light at the end of the tunnel, and it’s 18-year-old Cooper Flagg. That’s something to look forward to, something to rebuild around.
Chandler Parsons: And at the end of the day, no matter how good or talented Ja Morant is, despite everything he’s been through — all the off-court issues, the drama — he’s still auditioning for the 29 other teams. These are teams that might want to invest in him, that might want to make a move assuming he’s truly unhappy in Memphis. But when we start talking about lack of effort — when you’re not giving it your all and you’re out there basically messing with the game — that’s a serious problem.

George Gervin: The Spurs got a good real good news with Fox coming in and Wemby. They got a good nucleus to really put something together. Hey, y'all. Y'all know just like I know: The old era is gone. No LeBron, no Steph. Chandler Parsons: It's a new wave. Gervin: They got the young fellas now. So, everybody, hey, Lou, everybody is gonna be an ex player one day. Lou Williams: That's a fact. That is a fact.
Chandler Parsons: Is Tyrese Haliburton a superstar? George Gervin: When they needed him, he was there. You know what is a superstar? A superstar is someone you can depend on. Someone who takes charge when it's time. He got all the criteria, that's been proved that he is a superstar. So, I'm excited about it. He has some big shots in these playoffs to get them where they are today. So, he done proved to me that he does belong and he should have that title. No doubt.
Chandler Parsons: It’s going to be hard to jump over Bird, KD, and LeBron. Michelle Beadle: Does anybody have him jumping over Bird? Lou Williams: He can jump over guys if you add championships. DeMarcus Cousins: No. Let's not do this. No. Beadle: Not even a little? Cousins: No. Williams: Yes, he can. Cousins: No. Larry Bird? No. Parsons: I don’t want that smoke. I give him maybe Pippen. Beadle: Why wouldn't you put him over Pippen? Kawhi Leonard's been the guy on a championship team. Parsons: Just availability, I suppose, is the only flaw. Beadle: Okay, but when he's there… Williams: Why is Larry Bird untouched? Why is Larry Bird an untouchable in this conversation? I'm not challenging nothing about Larry Bird. I'm asking why is he an untouchable in this conversation when we're throwing out LeBron James, Kevin Durant…We're throwing out so many people, but when it comes to Larry Bird, you’re all shutting down, I don’t understand. Parsons: Three time champ, two-time NBA finals MVP, three-time MVP, 12 time All-Star… Williams: You don't have to tell me, I know exactly who Larry Bird is. Parsons: Nine-time first team. Lary Bird is even a three-time all-defensive team. Cousins: Can we not do this? Williams: Then Larry Bird is number one then, right? Based on your logic. Cousins: No. It’s LeBron James, then Larry Bird.
