Abstract: An NBA referee has now pleaded guilty, and forensic economists have found signs of bias and cheating in the NBA, college basketball and sumo wresting. Ian Ayres argues that the NBA should release referee data to allow forensic economists to look for statistical evidence of malfeasance, before credibility in results is lost.
