NBA bans Raptors' two-way player Jontay Porter for life. "The league’s investigation found that prior to the Raptors’ March 20 game, Porter disclosed confidential information about his own health status to an individual he knew to be an NBA bettor. Another individual with whom Porter associated and knew to be an NBA bettor subsequently placed an $80,000 parlay proposition bet with an online sports book, to win $1.1 million, wagering that Porter would underperform in the March 20 game."

So stupid.  So what does he do with the rest of his life?  Just be a tall a** security guard or customer service guy?

Wait. What?   Somebody bet $80k because Jontay Porter wasn't available to play the game.  Is this the 4 ppg Jontay Porter or some other Jontay Porter i'm not aware of? 

This doesn't pass the smell test.  As kg said they're just looking for the most convenient person to send a message with.  Find someone who's not going to be in the league anyway and 'ban them for life'

Unless I'm reading it wrong there was a bet on the outcome of the game that Porter supposedly bet and then there was a prop bet that wasn't a bet on the outcome of the game:

Unless I'm reading it wrong, the $1.1M payout bet had a component that was specific to Porter's individual performance.

Rick sKamla and skinnin-grinnin AD interviewing my guy Jose Ballerado rn

Jose said it's hard to play the boring (i.e. regular season) games as opposed to playoff(in) games. 

sKamla and AD:  Hehe, haha, hyuk, hyuk...

When Trae said the same, these hosts all killed him.

Frauds.

You really can bet on anything these days.   Even vegas has to know the only people betting one way or another on Porter's performance must have some inside info.

IIUC, you're right.  It was connected to his performance specifically, which is why he faked an injury to ensure he wouldn't play more.

I couldn't stomach much more.  At the end of that interview, a bubbly sKamla says. "Hyuk, hyuk, was that Trae's last game in a Hawks uniform?  We'll chop it up next!"

:sick:
