OPINION

Dameion Farrar Young appeals from the 108-month sentence imposed upon his *545 guilty plea to conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute, and possession with intent to distribute, crack cocaine, 21 U.S.C.A. §§ 841, 846(a)(1) (West 1999). At sentencing, the district court reduced Young’s offense level by two levels based on its finding that he had a minor role in the offense. U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual, § 3B1.2(b) (2000). On appeal, Young claims that the district court erred in denying him an additional two-level reduction for having a minimal role in the offense. See USSG § 3B1.2(a).

The sentencing court’s determination of a defendant’s role in the offense is reviewed for clear error. United States v. Love, 134 F.3d 595, 606 (4th Cir. 1998). A defendant has a minimal role in a concerted criminal activity if he is among the least culpable of those involved in the conduct of the group. USSG § 3B1.2, comment. (n.l). A minimal role is indicated by a “defendant’s lack of knowledge or understanding of the scope and structure of the enterprise and of the activities of others....” (Id.).' The defendant has the burden of showing by a preponderance of the evidence that he is entitled to a mitigating role adjustment. United States v. Akinkoye, 185 F.3d 192, 202 (4th Cir. 1999).

The evidence presented to the district court established that Young lived with one of the leaders of the conspiracy, who would sometimes pay his bets with Young in crack cocaine, which Young would, in turn, sell to crack addicts. This court has held that a defendant who sells drugs is not entitled to a mitigating role adjustment. United States v. Brooks, 957 F.2d 1138, 1149 (4th Cir. 1992). Therefore, the district court did not clearly err in failing to find that Young had a minimal role. Accordingly, we affirm Young’s sentence. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
