The FBI has made inquiries about NBA referee Dick Bavetta, according to a former NBA referee who was interviewed by federal agents last year. Hue Hollins, who retired in 2003 and has been outspoken about the NBA's treatment of referees, said he met for about an hour with two agents from New York before last season.

"They were very specific about their questioning, as though they had heard something," Hollins said. "They knew exactly what they were going after.
