"Jontay Porter receives lifetime ban from NBA for violating gambling rules"
You are right, the news about Porter has been hot and popular news in NBA sports circles for several days now, the case experienced by Porter, could be a valuable lesson for sports players, especially the NBA, Anyone who is involved in gambling has no tolerance for them, punishments are still enforced and enforced, it is better to lose one person than to lose 1000 NBA fans.
I have seen cases involving basketball players/Porters, as revealed by the NBA.
The nBA said it found evidence that before the Raptors game on March 20, Porter shared confidential information about his health condition with someone he knew was a bettor.
"The person placed a bet of US$80 thousand that Porter would perform badly in the match and win US$1.1 million," the NBA said.
In that match, Porter only played for 3 minutes before admitting to being sick and unable to continue playing.
"Due to the strangeness of the gambling activity and the player's behavior, the betting money of US$80 thousand was frozen and the winnings were not paid," the NBA said.
This is a fatal case for the NBA sports generation, we hope, especially for those who like to gamble on NBA sports, that in the future there will be no more cases like what happened to Porter which could harm NBA fans as a whole.
