Draft Kings doesn’t make money when Jontay Porter cheats, they lose money. Not sure if it was DK, but the league was tipped off by one of their gambling sponsors.
@@JohnnytNatural You don't know that for a fact. If you saw him actually play - he would have had a legit chance, at least as a bench piece but he blew it.
A lot of the people in these comments seem to have completely missed the point of what he did. The “inside info” was about when he took himself out of a game(faked injury) so that he wouldn’t play his usual minutes to hit an over on his box score, and told a bettor he was going to do so beforehand. That is manipulating both the game and the betting on it. Doesn’t have anything to do with how good he is or if they lost the game. And that was just one instance. Dude might get jail time for this, not just a ban.
Wait, am I reading this correctly? He made multiple bets between $15 to $22,000 & only made a profit of $21,965. In other words, not only is he banned for life but he didn't even make any money gambling.
The NBA got tipped by one of their gambling sponsors. If they hadn’t been a legal gambling company, this may never have come to light. What a stupid young man. He made ~$20k on his bets, but was making $560k on his two way, which is gone forever now.
In a healthy world the media would use this opportunity to raise the awareness against Sports Betting - but of course ESPN also makes money out of it. Sports betting is one of the worst addiction for many of our weakest citizens out there, particularly the youngest, particularly the poorest and literally ruins and takes people's lives. The people who make money out of this business should be sentenced not those who fall for it.
I just remembered that the other brother, Coban Porter, was involved in a vehicular manslaughter case and look like he pleaded guilty to it 2 months ago....the family will be so happy if the Denver Nuggets repeat as world champions!!!!

I don’t understand. I get that he’s getting banned for gambling and that should be seen as a bad thing. But isn’t the NBA sponsored by betting sites? Pretty ironic and hypocritical
Well, the league gotta put it's foot hard on this one. It's not a case of off-court, personal drama like the pre-season---- it's something directly affecting trust in the game.
This is a prime example of a person with a gambling problem. It was reported that he placed hundreds of bets on games other than the NBA. This is a mental health issue and instead of making an example of him by banning him the NBA should have provided treatment Some may disagree but there is a reason why every betting ad states if you have a gambling problem please seek help. There are NBA player that have done heinous things like beating their wife or girlfriend but they still play in the league. I absolutely detest the fact that sports gambling is legal, really takes away from the game.
The NBA, like all these other leagues, has gotten into bed with all of the gambling sites. You can't watch 5 minutes of a game without seeing updated odds on the screen from FanDuel, DraftKings, etc. They are being deliberately delusional if they want to pretend that wouldn't lead to this.
Sport leagues and content platforms are doubling down on pushing gambling corporations on their audiences despite there being decades of information as to why it should not be done. Jontay Porter is not the only professional sports employee who manipulates the system. In addition, the general public will have evolving worse behaviors because of the gambling integrations. By all means, keep pushing gambling as a mainstream activity and use "Call 800-GAMBLER" as an responsibility avoidance tool. SMH. 🤷♂
He fumbled the bag! Fine had played in the NBA for another season or two, he’d have been a millionaire but risked it all for a few thousands and now banned for life from the league. Maybe he can be a high school basketball coach. 😂
“Zero tolerance policy” sure. It’s an easy call to make considering it’s Jontay Porter, but what happens next time when it’s someone like Jokic or Shai or even Michael Porter Jr for that matter?
Others are all about "Whataboutism"... You though are all about Hypotheticals. What if... what if... foolish argument. They work on their game and get the bag so they dont have to play stupid games. This aint the 90s anymore where top players are as dumb as a bag of bricks.

Dude tried to be Pete Rose. However I get why sports betting is popular so it can fund how sports arenas and stadiums are paid for. Yet allowing the advertisements of betting in sports is kinda bad.
when it gets too obvious that the NBA and refs are rigged like a ship, ya gotta find a fall guy to divert attention... "hey, Jontay, $60 million and a referee job if you run into that bridge" how much ya think NBA Entertainment paid him for it?
If you don't play for the Raptors you know they're gonna lose most of their games, you don't need inside info. If he bet on them to win he would of been broke
I don't know why people are acting surprised when things like this happen, NBA is promoting gambling like their life depends on it, you have referees gifting free throws to players like embiid and sga... No wonder why this became a thing
Now go after the refs

Refs did league a favor by awarding heat that championship over mavericks in 2006

He will become a public speaker on the topic of gambling and how it can ruin your chances in the NBA.
And probably will make more money there than he would have in NBA or overseas. Crazy world

Man the double standards are crazy. Player gambles on games and gets banned for life. Ref gambles on games, gets shielded from criticisms
google tim donaghy
He was the fall guy. Google Scott Foster who still is a ref in the NBA
Well a player betting against his own team is disgusting. Imagine being his teammate
Certain people are all about "Whataboutism." You get caught robbing a place and be like "What about the politicians." Broken Society.

Easy sacrificial lamb. Now get a star involved and see how it goes
We already see it in the MLB. If Lebron got busted for this there would 100% be a fall-guy to take the blame.
Same result. The commissioner would be annihilated.
If the rumor is true, that already happened and the guy left to play baseball for a year and a half.

I mean the real money was the 1.1m bet but seems like it was caught and frozen before they cashed out
He made a profit which is calculated by income less costs. So in essence he benefited by the $21 965 because profit is after expenses.
No it just means he made $22K out of it
He took no loss. He would of been waived by next season. Nba careers are 1-2 years at most these days if you not producing
Underrated comment!
Yep.
He was fixing games... This is not "significant action" as misandrist andrews said... It is a good and correct action that the player deserved
betting on your own team to lose is hilarious even he knew they sucked
The OWNERS are in FULL PARTNERSHIP with the people who OWN GAMBLING.
