The Toronto Raptors have been embroiled in a tumultuous season marked by a series of events including lawsuits, trades, injuries, and now, a potential gambling scandal involving player Jontay Porter. The NBA has initiated an investigation into 'prop bet irregularities' surrounding Porter, who had been absent from the team for personal reasons.
The irregularities in question revolve around two games where Porter played for the Raptors and left early due to injury. Sportsbooks noted a significant increase in betting activity on Porter's prop bets during these games, with unusually large wagers being placed on the under.
