This lifetime ban brought to you by FanDuel.
Well, he did this to himself. I agree it’s insane they are doing this we hate gambling but are raking in the dough, but still, he screwed himself….
@@jackjackthompson5771all he did was take advantage of what the league is already doing…. Refs will eject a guy for looking at them and saying absolutely nothing because they’re about to hit
I was going to comment this lol.
for decades the illegal sports gambling industry made millions (probably billions) by using the nba's product and the nba got absolutely nothing. now it is a legal and regulated industry in most states, why is it wrong for the nba to get some money? people are betting on nba games, the nba definitely definitely deserves some of the profits generated by these sports books
@@mrmakuman24 it’s not about it being wrong or right it’s about you breaking a rule that’s specifically stated in the contract you signed for millions of dollars.
It's crazy how $925,000 a year was not enough for Jontay to be satisfied. Human greed is undefeated.
That’s not shi have you seen bezo. His greed is not as bad as billionaires you do know the difference between millionaires and billionaires is exponential but let’s attack a guy who could live off those winning without stocks maybe 10 years
Greed is undefeated but a guy who bets on fake sports or a man who exploits children in third world countries… let’s start at the top and go to the bottom not the other way around.
@dowhatiwantc7637 say that again..the world 1percent wealth is getting greater whilst everyone else own is diminishing
@@dowhatiwantc7637 I'm no fan of Jeff Bezos but he did make life a lot easier for billions of people by inventing Amazon.
An addiction is much more powerful than greed…
It was Jontay Porter's interpreter who did it! haha
Good one, people are damn naive to believe someone can retrieve that much cash from his account and he is not aware.🤦
@@terrenceboone5206did you read the 37 pages detail first? And there are many cases that people stole the money from pro athletes. Kevin Garnett got stolen 77M from his financial team and he didn't have interpreter. Just let you know.
@@terrenceboone5206 it's not Japanese Yen. it was foreign currency to Shohei = a lot less valuable culturally, even if it isnt economically. It's like being paid in aluminium cans, not cash like you think.
@@terrenceboone5206exactly. No one understands how wiring money works. It requires 2 factor authentication. One of which is a token. This would mean the interpreter would not only have Ohtani's bank password, but his phone, his phone password, and his biometric to unlock the token each time. Also, all wires go through OFAC. With the frequency of these the bank would have called the phone number on file, not the interpreter. Finally Ohtani has a lot of money going in and out of his account and has complex taxes. He has a bookeeper who settles the books at the end of the month. Any unauthorized transactions would have been noticed by a bookeeper. This is the same as America accepting Mark McGwire saying I took GNC products to get big.
He's going to need an interpreter in China.
Isn't his last name Porter??????????????????????????
I predicted this would happen. The new gambling apps allow to bet on an individual and not just a team’s wins or losses. A player was going to bet on themselves and screw around and try to cash in.
NBA referee should next JEFF FOSTER
The sports world embraces gambling NFL, NBA etc. but expects players not to gamble impossible hypocritical too. The exception of course don't bet on your team to win or lose
WHAT A WAY TO HELP SOMEONE WITH AN ADDICTION MR. ADAM SILVER !
NIL, transfer portal, sports betting. College and professional. Anyone who disagrees is naive. I’ll make a bet with anyone…. I bet he’s not the only one.
Lions cowboys playoff game in Dallas as I watched it was clear & present that the officials refs responsible for the safety & integrity of the game were not going to allow Detroit Lions to win in Dallas against cowboys
He should work at a factory for $20 an hour and see how he like it.
Didn’t Boban just do the same thing with chicken nuggets?
The good news for the NBA is I don’t really think they need to worry about superstars getting caught in scandals like this bc they’re already making so much money.
Guys on the edge like this barely holding onto their careers are much more likely to be taken advantage of. Also there’s a pretty solid argument to be made for certain officials fixing games
I am sure that no NBA ref in history has ever fixed a game before /s.
As a sidenote, scott foster yet again assigned to a lakers game. Take that as you will...
Michael Jordan
If players are giving insider injury information to sports books what are the average Joe employees doing?
Get those Refs too 😒
Also let’s not forget that even still Florida state didn’t deserve to make the CFP
One to to gamble it’s another to gamble on your own team too lose…
The advice should be to not be cheap and get an interpreter.
Every pro athlete and ref are completely legit. This never happens.
I really, REALLY hope Jontay saved the 2.3 million (or whatever it was) he made b4 he started this gambling mess. But he probably didn't smh
He is gonna join Dwight Howard in Taiwan.😂😂
Dear Pete Rose,
......................
The betting sites and sports leagues all take this very seriously, the integrity of their businesses depends on it.
Athletes cocky not smart
Proof the league is scripted
Gambling is one thing, but this guy purposefully faked illnesses and played poorly to help people make money, which caused him team to lose. It's not like he was gambling on baseball or something he had no involvement in.
Idiot fumbled the bag so hard. All for about 21k in winnings.
yeah only GMs are allowed to tank games.
That team would lose against a 2024 play in Klay Thompson lol
@@drumagus2258tanking is legal grambling on your games in which your apart of is not but you gen z babies always gotta come with your foolishness
@@cremdeniro237 well for one he didnt actually bet on any games he played in and for two tanking should be illegal. its certainly immoral.
He did not cause his team to lose. He got out of the game as quickly as he could. He had no impact on the outcome of the games whatsoever.
lol rich never wears the glasses to use them, only to take them off in the beginning of his hot take
He puts them on to read his notes...
They’re called “reading’ glasses for a reason
Gambling companies don't want to lose money to insider trading. THEY'RE the ones who make money on insider trading...
@carrite for real.. I wonder if they gave ppl their money back if they had taken his over for those games, since they didn’t give them the winnings. I had a parlay for +1200 odds where only leg that lost was Temple +7.5 over UAB and they lost badly but reports are that that was the 5th game this year of suspicious betting behavior (it started out as +1.5 and went to 7.5 over night) if it comes out that they were tanking on purpose wonder if they’ll subtract that from my original parlay as a push and give me the 3 pick win at like +550 (probably not though they’ll just tell me sucks to suck )
@@kylem6370they wouldn’t it’s all fake and Las Vegas keeps betting alive for one reason the money they make. The house always wins
Exactly. He was caught because it just wasn't him moving his own money, but a lot of money moved which triggered their systems to further investigate.
Exactly, I bet no bets were frozen earlier in the year when they were throwing Jokic and Giannis out of games at half time. I bet they were raking it in then. It’s despicable. Get this gambling bs out of my sports.
Huh ?
Betting against your own team is a whole different level of messed up. This is the kind of thing that gets criminally charged. The fact that he wasn’t playing those games will probably save him from being arrested, but still…
The ads are everywhere. The leagues promote it. This is a mess. Players, coaches, refs, executives are all susceptible. This is only the beginning. Gambling addiction is real.
every sports league in the world has had beer partnerships/sponsors for as long as i can remember
doesn't mean they condone players showing up to games drunk lol people need to stop being so melodramatic and realize that people make these kinds of choices regardless of what's legal or regardless of who one of their bosses business sponsors are
@@mattcarberry368That's not even apples to oranges. A player, coach, GM, or other member of the team can use insider information to make quick money with sports betting apps which are designed to be super easy to use. Sure, a player making 7 figures may not be likely to engage but an assistant trainer who knows about an injury?
Grow up.
@@mattcarberry368The players showing up drunk wouldn't be with the intent of getting some side action for throwing games or ensuring less than expected results.
And it’s so easy to gamble now. You can’t promote all these gambling companies and put it in our face everyday and expect no consequences. You’re right, this is just the beginning
its not that hard to not gamble
Jontay “Wilder” Porter
Right 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Here's my issue with the ban, ultimately...let's say it had been Nikola Jokic or Luka Doncic or Victor Wembanyama who had done this. Would THEY have been banned for life? I'd be willing to bet not. The league would prioritize their revenue from said players. Jontay clearly and obviously made abhorrent decisions, but he's being banned for life and made an example of, in part because he's not a star player.
The league(s) opened Pandora's box when they partnered with betting sites........wtf you think was gonna happen. Guaranteed this won't be the last time
There’s books on betting before these this just made it worse
Not just the players and coaches either, but also the officials.
Right. It's the league's fault....
Give me a break. This greedy idiot knew the rules, and did it anyway.
Accountability is clearly challenging for you, @robj362
Major League Sports need to stop all partnerships with betting apps. Its gross and slimey to partner with them. Also so the league is partnering with them, but you as a player can get in trouble and banned for betting. That's some bullshit right there
They all are slimey every betting app is based on them making money not the betters
@@dowhatiwantc7637 I don't care about the betters. I care about the players getting in trouble even though their teams and sports Leagues are making deals with these gambling apps
@@dowhatiwantc7637that’s how gambling works. Why else are casinos open 24/7? Sure aren’t there for people to win 😂
how is that bullshit that players cannot bet on games in a league that employs them? that is the most common sense gambling rule possible. i actually think im going crazy because theres no way another human said its bullshit that nba players cant bet on nba games, especially games theyre playing in. thats completely insane. also sports gambling is as old as sports itself, as long as humans have been playing sports other humans have been betting on it. why shouldnt the nba profit off of that? the illegal sports gambling industry was making profits by using the nba's product for decades. why is it wrong for the nba to want some of those profits when the gambling is done in a legal and regulated manner?
@@mrmakuman24 you don’t even make any sense. So you want guys to do what this dude did and take under a on himself and make the games a clown league so every player can do this
Is this another "isolated" event and nobody else does this? Sport is probably dirty as sin.
The crazy thing is that there is a generation, taught to judge by money not morals or effort , who is nightly saying
“ players should get the bag “ ?
The people who own the leagues are in Full partnership with the people who own Gambling. Integrity lost already.
When greed eclipses intelligence...
He averaged 4 points per game, this guy was never in a position to lose a game on his own
Not the point...he was giving inside information about himself and other teammates.
This lifetime ban was brought to you by DraftKings Sportsbook.
Great journalism here.
I have no problem with betting, in porters case though it was a dumb move. Period. 22 thowow made from bets but his annual salary close to 1M
Gambling companies and mobsters get in bed with Professional Sports... Players and employees get caught gambling... WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT!
Jontay wilder??? lol
Jontay Porter should’ve gotten an interpreter so he could hide behind a language barrier. He’d still be playing basketball today. 
The two situations aren’t even remotely comparable. One athlete gets robbed, the other athlete throws his own games that he was betting on.
The lesson here: Porter should have gotten an interpreter.
If you hate so much that Shohei is innocent, I suggest you stop crying and prove DOJ, IRS and Homeland Security all wrong instead.
Maybe these sports leagues need to quit throwing all this sports gambling sites in everyone's faces, it's on the court, it's on the walls in the outfield and one the boards of the hockey game. It's everywhere, in everyone's faces. You think players are immune? What did you think was going to happen?
The math ain’t mathing
Crazy that they thought this was the boxer and put “wilder” instead of his name Porter. Lmao
There is no boxer named jontay wilder 😭
@@jamesonedwardsii4943 you don’t say…… but one can understand what the person was thinking when they made this
He should be branded as “the dumbest athlete of all time”
He wasn’t going to play much anyways, but why make it easier on them to cut you? What an absolute clown move, and having a dad who has coached college hoops for over two decades, he knows better
Good chance he would have got a minimum contract with the Raptors next season. Two million $ gone essentially gambled away…
if throwing your rich life away was a person...oh hi Jontay Porter lol.
I think it should be Draymond Green that receives a lifetime ban, not Porter
Draymond doesn’t gamble on his own games he just wants to fight. Wants to be a UFC fighter on an nba allstar salary.😂😂
Rich your jokes ain't funny bro....
Lets check his brother
He bet ON GAMES HE PLAYED...thats why he is getting lifetime ban. UNDER on GAMES HE PLAYED!!!!!
Who tf is jontay wilder😂
He's the Dontay Porter of basketball.
He wrote Young Frankenstein
Dont forget the people that may have possibly LOST tons of money betting on him, the average sportsbetteors .. never stood a chance.. will never get a refund either
"Don't gamble, but if you beat women and kids.. that's cool." This message is brought to you by FanDuel.
Obviously the lifetime ban is probably justified.. but the hypocrisy.
My only question is, his bro Mike got $200M and couldn't give him, like just $100K? How u gonna have a brother that makes $40M a year, and you betting games at $500?
“Galactically stupid” but altogether predictable. There should be no surprise with all the NCAA and professional athletes getting caught breaking the rules regarding legalized gambling, and now the Porter case. It was bound to happen, and we all knew it. 💰💰💰💰💰💰
The NBA can’t have players rigging games… That’s the ref’s job.
*points at the free throw disparity between The Lakers and the rest of the league*
All anyone; a player, a coach or a referee needs is a friend to place the bets, not to go crazy with the amounts and then they can just count the money.
Nobody cares if he's playing or not. He averages just 3.7 points a game. I looked it up. He's a non factor. He's such an embarrassment to the game that anything he would say or do people would probably bet the opposite... No one's taking a guy averaging 3 points a game seriously
The sports betting companies are I assure you.
@@scarpfishThe bookies said Why are people betting on this scrub? Which points to why do people care about him....
... serious question. Was there a Fanduel on the severity of Porter's punishment? Fanduel and these sites boast being able to gamble about anything, so why not? This is a huge loss for that guy, but he's not the first or last to throw it all away. What's bigger is that I don't just blame him. The league seems to support the gambling in general. And the LEAGUE mandates refs to dictate the flow of games by how they make calls. Let's face it, it's not about the actual sport it's just about the 'entertainment'. You have officials with awful egos that have vendettas against players, and you have officials that gamble themselves. You can apparently gamble on stuff like even shot attempts I think? Forget about Porter - he's just the guy that got CAUGHT.
So whatever, man. He's the example. Have to be smarter and easier to make an example out of a guy like that vs. if (not saying he does) say a Edwards or Halliburton were caught.
You REALLY believe other players haven’t done the same thing or Referees & gotten away with it 😂 rich can be so gullible.
This is the future. Gambling addiction is going to increase. The ban will not stop this from happening again. Predictable behavior but these leagues will claim ignorance. We didn’t know this would happen 😂😂😂😂
yall gotta realize hes probably in a ton of debt. Gamblers especially those who have good pay jobs never have enough. They cant help themselves. Its a disease. I know hes banned but I do hope he gets some help. Everyone just assumes he has 2M in his bank from NBA salary. Gamblers dont work like that. Gamblers are usually Broke
I 100% blame ADAM SILVER - he's a scoundrel who has sold the league to sports gambling companies
Gambling is just as addictive as drugs or alcohol. If he was a drug addict or an alcoholic people wouldn’t be calling him stupid, they would say he needs help.
Also, it’s hard to take Rich seriously with his Otani take.
What's the bigger crime what Porter did or the rigged NBA lottery draft. I wish the FBI would investigate that scam. Bounce their little ping pong balls in private.
I am extremely disappointed, don't get me wrong he deserves the punishment. But Jontay was a small positive in such a shitty season for the Raptors. Like hey we might have found a guy who could develop into a good bench player. Shame to see him squander that
Everything nowadays is framed as social ill or societal harm, ɓut this should be ecgnized as the personal failings of a foolish young man, privileged by Nature to live a life most of us could only dream of, throwing it all away because of the choices he made. When gsmbling was illegal and shunned as an industry these sorts of actions would be much less visible and pusued less vigorously., and the bookmakers would not be incentivized to study these discrepancies, beyond their own book's balance.
What? I don't understand about gambling and how it is so terrible that it needs a band for life is why is it still a thing? Why is it still available? Why is gambling even an auction? Why does the MBA get involved in gambling? If it's so terrible, these are the things that make no sense to me
The hypocrisy in the comment section tearing down the ugly Porter brother is amazing. Since when has sports not been intertwined with betting ? Come on now. Rich you should know better I bet you receive a paycheck from a gambling site
How could you guys just gloss over the prop bets that he ensured by faking illness and injury? That’s way worse than simply betting against his own team during a win.
So hypocritical, giving a speech on not gambling and that it’s a sickness, but all sports teams are now in partnership business with multiple gambling sites, and yet no sports shows like yours ever state your part in promoting sports gambling! All the commercials, partnerships and joint ventures!
Guy was giving betting advice on Twitter, complete idiot could have made more than most playing ball even if not in the NBA.
They have to make a statement as gambling is sports new golden egg. Hypocrisy after decades of religiously screaming about the ills of gambling.
"It's sad, it's so sad." But not the NBA teaming up with betting that's ruining god knows how many lives isn't sad enough to talk about.
I feel bad for Michael Porter Jr.
I just found out that was his brother 😭
why would you be sad for him? is he involved too? He’s not estranged so I bet he knew.
He has another brother who was convicted for driving drunk and killing someone last year the Porter family is on another level
why
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
Now lets investigate refs and umpires
The fact angel Hernandez still umps games is ridiculous.
Now he can get an honest 9-5 minimum wage job just like the majority of Americans. 😊
Raptors fans had started embracing him..hell the team even made a video about him and JVL as part of the future of the team. What a piece of garbage.
That's what keeps them awake at night ? Naah. What keeps them awake at night is how to extract more money from gambling sites as sponsors 😂
So why is Scott foster still employed as a referee when he’s the reason Tim Donaghy had a mafia bookie contact in the first place
you get a lifetime ban for gambling but you can wave guns around repeatedly and do all kinds of dirty s***
I would never as a pro athlete ever do this, but the fact that he bet from a friend’s account and still got caught, is craaaazy
I live in Vegas this dude is lucky he’s not buried in the desert or in a lake right now casinos do not put up with what jontay Porter did
I was waiting for Rich’s input on the news today!
All professional athletes should be banned from any kind of sports betting in my opinion
I don't like how often TJ gets interrupted. Let TJ talk please.
Golden State can laugh when theirs a bad beat on a spread on camera no questions though.
Life's a gamble. Porter is going to need an interpreter in China. You can bet on it.
All that hard work to make it, destroyed in seconds by stupidity
If he had an interpreter he could've just said he didn't understand.
Sad? No. No sympathy for degenerate gamblers.
He can go play in Europe, China or Taiwan… He’ll be ok…
what a fool, doesnt he know he dont have the clout to get away with it like ohtani?
Ohtani is proven clean and FBI announced Ohtani as the victim after FBI, Home Security Service, and Internal Revenue Investigation released a 37 pages reports after investigated Ohtani 's 4~5 years of Ohtani's internet communication records with Ippei interpretor. Ippei stole 16m from Ohtani's bank account!
When Ohtani first came to US in 2018, Ippei helped Ohtani to open bank account for Angels salary. Since then Ippei got access of this bank account and lied to Ohtani's agent and agent's accountant that Ohtani wanted to keep the account private while Ohtani thought his agent and accountant were having an eye and checking on his account. Since Ohtani has a lot of endorsement money (98m USD in'23) and other incomes and he hardly spend money in daily life, Ohtani never login in his salary's bank account. Ippei knew well and he changed all contacts of Ohtani's salary account to Ippei's own phone and mailing address. Ippei in 2021 started to stole money from Ohtani's account and transferred money to Ippei's bookie for Ippei's gambling debt payments. When ESPN requested about Ohtani's bank transfers to the illegal bookie, Ippei lied to Ohtani's agent(who communicated everything through Ippei and never hired any other Japanese interpretor to talk to Ohtani till Ohtani called him up directly and told him Ippei lied through other Interpretor). Ippei lied to Ohtani's agent, ESPN reporter/staffs, Dodgers topps, and all Dodgers teammates & coaches in after 1st game team meeting of Seoul series that Ohtani covered him for paying a number of payments to Ippei's bookie. Yet Ohtani didn't know Ippei was gambling illegally and lied to everyone in the meeting because Ippei was talking in English only in that meeting and Ohtani couldn't understand many English terms though Ohtani sensed something wrong and concerning him. Ohtani tried to understand what happened through anothet interpretor in the bus to hotel, yet Ippei told Ohtani to wait till back to hotel to talk to Ohtani personally. Ippei then in the Seoul hotel admitted to Ohtani that Ippei stole money from Ohtani's account to pay Ippei's bookie. It's the first time then Ohtani heard about Ippei bet and stole money from Ohtani's account
Ippei even asked Ohtani to COVER Ippei's lies and tried to convince Ohtani to lie along Ippei's story. However, Ohtani immediately refused Ippei and called Ohtani's agent who's in same hotel to come and later joined meeting with Ohtani agent's lawer, Ohtani's emergency lawyer, snd Ippei's wife (who first find out Ippei's lies at this point). Immediately Dodgers tops fired Ippei after discovering Ippei lied to all people and stole millions of money from Ohtani's bank account.
I personally able to read and list to Japanese and English. So I probably get a clearer picture than some US reporters and radio MC who don't. In addition, thete is a biased US reporter who has Japanese background, he is an Angel reporter and tried to use Ohtani to sell his book. Yet this reporter keeps spreading conspiracy theories of Ohtani and tries to mislead readers. I hope you are not one of those and hope you would read the FBI report before your next comment since you know good enough English to comprehend the report.
Or get an interpreter
What did Ohtani do??
@@kingrama2727 Nothing. He was cleared by three different federal agencies.
@@twmonkeyboy that’s what I thought, I just wonder why these people keep saying Ohtani got away with something…
What's the ban for at least 14 years of P.E.D usage?
