Former NBA basketball star Charles Barkley may face felony charges if he does not repay more than 400,000 dollars to a Los Vegas casino that he owes.

The casino in question is called the Wynn Casino and they are stating that Charles failed to repay 4 100,000 dollar markers that he received last year.

They state that to date he has not yet repaid the lones he was given, and are threatening legal action against sir Charles.

“We’re in the process of sending Mr. Barkley notice that we’re considering filing a criminal complaint,” Clark County District Attorney David Roger said. “He’ll have an opportunity like anybody else to make restitution to the hotel.”

Barkely is now retired from the NBA after a 16 year career. He currently works as a game analyst with TNT.
