Bill Simmons under investigation in Mass. over proxy bets

Catch up quick: Simmons reportedly detailed on a podcast last week that he asked his daughter's boyfriend, who lives in Boston, to place bets on Simmons' FanDuel account.

• FanDuel, which sponsors Simmons' The Ringer media platform, forbids proxy betting, and voided the bets.

State of play: Thomas Mills, a commission spokesperson, told Axios that the agency is aware of Simmons' comments and "staff are currently reviewing the matter."

The latest: Simmons said on Wednesday that he didn't know proxy betting wasn't allowed.

• "I've learned my lesson."

What's next: "The good news is I'm going to be in Boston," he added, "and maybe at some point, I'll make some more wagers down the road."
