A multimillion-dollar New York City townhouse once shared by Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott is now at the center of a bombshell sports betting scandal rocking the NBA. The luxurious Greenwich Village residence is one of two NYC locations where, according to federal authorities, high-stakes—and highly illegal—poker games were operated by Manhattan’s reigning crime families.
The home gained widespread attention when it was featured in a 2023 episode of *The Kardashians*. It is where a pregnant Kylie Jenner lived with her rapper ex, Travis Scott, and their firstborn before relocating to Los Angeles, according to the New York Post.
According to an indictment obtained by TMZ, the illegal poker games—where individuals were reportedly swindled out of millions—were held at this location in 2023 as well. Importantly, the famous former power couple are not named in the documents and have not been accused of any wrongdoing.
The walls of this residence witnessed significant turmoil in 2023. Federal officials revealed that the townhouse was raided by armed men that fall after tensions escalated between the mobsters managing these illegal poker operations.
The ritzy townhouse, which last sold in 2024 for $17 million according to its Zillow listing, boasts six bedrooms and eight bathrooms spread across six stories.
On Thursday, the federal government indicted 34 defendants on charges related to two major fraud cases. The first case involves illegal activities on sports betting sites. The second centers on New York City’s crime families and prominent NBA figures accused of rigging illegal poker games and exploiting players out of millions.
Notably, Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat player Terry Rozier were arrested in connection with the second case, as reported by Fox 9 Minneapolis-St. Paul.
This unfolding scandal highlights the intersection of organized crime, illegal gambling, and professional sports—a story that will continue to develop in the coming months.
