Don't bother clicking on the link yet - it doesn't tell us any details yet. Arrested for fraud. Could mean lots of different things without further context

Impersonating a basketball expert on first take? What other possibilities for this fraud arrest anyone?

Now that you mention it, I wonder if he is being charged with impersonating his own brother. Would be easy for him to pull off I reckon

I heard stories of kids doing that for fun... like pre-teen kids. Something like asking candy/drink again and saying it was their twin that asked before.

Read a blurb elsewhere it was for writing a bad check. TIFWIW.

Probably a felony due to the amount?

The Morris twins have always been troublemakers. Fake gangsters and do really weird stuff

The only good thing that could come out of this is that I don't have to see him hopefully on TV or First Take. Right? Right?

Which says a lot but I'll stop there so the mods don't have to shut down some political stuff.....

Why do you say fake? I don't know that much about them but both are from the serious hood of Philly and definitely grew up neck deep in very not fake stuff. Not saying they're in gangs or whatever but wouldn't be surprised if they'd follow through on a threat to f you up if you tried them.

I figured something small like this. Just some overdrawn checking account that we all tend to do on the occasion accidentally, but on a larger scale in public at a casino. Just one time, not like he's been doing this regularly scamming casinos. .
And then the media twists it up.
