Porter was banned from the NBA earlier this season for a betting scandal.
Just one day after the NBA season concluded with a Finals series victory for the Boston Celtics over the Dallas Mavericks, Toronto Raptors and former Missouri Tigers power forward Jontay Porter is being put under criminal investigation by authorities in Canada for his betting scandal,
On the Jan. 26 game, there was increased betting interest on the under for Porter props. He ended up playing just four minutes before leaving the game due to a "re-aggravation of an eye injury" from a recent game and all of the unders hit. The following morning, DraftKings Sportsbook said that the under on Porter's 3-pointers was the biggest winner of any NBA player prop from that night.
Four men surrounding the scandal were charged with wire fraud a couple of weeks ago for this, but Porter is yet to be charged.. "He was in over his head due to a gambling addiction. He is undergoing treatment and has been fully cooperative with law enforcement."
