  • Jontay Porter: Receives lifetime ban
    By RotoWire

    The NBA announced Wednesday that Porter has received a lifetime ban for violating the league's gaming rules, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. Commissioner Adam Silver suggested last week that a lifetime ban from the NBA was on the table for Porter, and the league officially confirmed the punishment Wednesday. Per a press release from the NBA, Porter "disclosed confidential information about his own health status to an individual he knew to be an NBA bettor" and limited his playing time to impact his prop bets in at least one Raptors game. Porter also placed at least 13 bets on NBA games between January and March of 2024, although none of the wagers involved a game in which Porter played. The league's investigation remains open, but Porter will be permanently barred from playing in the league.

  • NBA commissioner Adam Silver said Wednesday that Porter (personal), who is under investigation by the league following multiple instances of betting irregularities over the past several months, could face a permanently ban from the league if the investigation finds that the 24-year-old had any involvement in the increased betting interest surrounding his prop bets earlier in the season, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports. "I have an enormous range of discipline available to me," Silver said. "But it's a cardinal sin, what he's accused of in the NBA, and the ultimate, extreme option I have is to ban him from the game. Because there's nothing more serious, I think, around this league when it comes to gambling: betting on our games. And that is a direct player involvement. And so, the investigation is ongoing, but the consequences could be very severe." Porter hasn't suited up for Toronto since March 22, with the Raptors listing him out for "personal reasons" while the investigation is ongoing. He'll almost certainly remain away from the Raptors for the rest of the season, and based on Silver's comments, Porter's future in the NBA moving forward would appear to be in significant question. The league's investigation stems from prop bets involving Porter for games played Jan. 26 and March 20, when the center exited those contests early due to an eye injury and an illness while playing just four and three minutes, respectively. According to the DraftKings Sportsbook, "unders" on Porter prop bets ended up being the biggest moneymakers for NBA bettors on both of those dates. For his part, Porter has yet to issue a public comment on the NBA's investigation.

  • Porter, who is listed as out for Monday's game against the Nets due to a personal matter, has been away from the team because he's the subject of an NBA investigation into irregularities on prop bets involving him for games played Jan. 26 and March 20, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. Porter is missing his second straight game Monday, but he looks as though he could be out for much longer while the investigation remains active. Before missing Saturday's 112-109 loss to the Wizards, Porter had played in six straight games and averaged 5.8 points, 4.3 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks in 19.3 minutes during that stretch. His ongoing absence should pave the way for Mouhamadou Gueye to stay in the rotation as the primary backup to starting center Kelly Olynyk, though Toronto will likely make use of small-ball lineups, too.

  • Porter (personal) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports. Porter will miss his second straight contest while tending to a personal matter. Mouhamadou Gueye, Jordan Nwora and Jalen McDaniels should continue to benefit as a result of Porter's absence.
