The NBA said Jontay Porter, who just received a lifetime ban for violating the league’s gambling policies, bet on the Raptors to lose.
Jontay Porter was the anti-Pete Rose.
While Rose maintained he never bet on the Reds to lose, the NBA said Porter, who just received a lifetime ban for violating the league’s gambling policies, bet on the Raptors to lose.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski called that the “most damning” part of Porter’s transgressions.
“Most damning for Porter and the NBA itself: He bet the Raptors to lose, according to league’s investigation,” Wojnarowski tweeted Thursday.
The NBA dropped the hammer on Porter on Wednesday, capping its investigation by booting him from the league after discovering he bet on games, which is forbidden.
