A New York man has been charged Tuesday in a sports betting scandal that spurred the NBA to ban Jontay Porter for life
A New York man was charged Tuesday in a sports betting scandal that spurred the NBA to ban Jontay Porter for life, with the charges marking the first known criminal fallout from the matter. Porter isn't named in the court complaint, but its specifics about “Player 1” match the details of the former Toronto Raptors player's downfall this spring.
Accused of conspiring to defraud a sports betting company, he's due back in court Wednesday for a bail hearing. Brooklyn U.S. Attorney Breon Peace said the alleged conspirators participated in a brazen, illegal betting scheme that had a corrupting influence on two games and numerous bets.' “Whether on the court or in the casino, every point matters,' Peace said in a statement.
