A recent report suggests Jontay Porter bet millions of dollars before the NBA began its gambling investigation.

Porter, 24, is being investigated by the league for potential stat manipulation where he held the most-betted Under on DraftKings on two different occasions.

The allegations started glaring when he took himself out of a game against the Sacramento Kings less than three minutes in on March 20.

On Tuesday, Action Network reported that the Toronto Raptors forward made over 1,000 wagers and was ‘firing all the time’ as a VIP member of FanDuel Sportsbook from 2021-23.

During that timeframe, Porter played for three teams in the NBA G-League. However, the wagers halted when he signed a two-way deal with the Raptors.

DraftKings flagged the NBA about suspicious betting patterns revolving the Raptors star

According to the report, Porter did not bet on basketball at any level then. The detail can come into play in the investigation, as any player under the collective bargaining agreement can bet on sports outside of basketball.

However, the New York Post reported on March 26 that Porter’s day-trading X (Twitter) account @taytrades posted about winning a March Madness parlay in 2022.

Porter was not part of a G-League affiliate then, so in theory, he had not broken any rules.

Nevertheless, it does not help Porter’s case amid accusations of being part of the gambling world – which NBA commissioner Adam Silver said can be worthy of a lifetime ban.

Porter looked to revive his NBA career before DraftKings notified the league of suspicious betting patterns around him. An X user posted an eight-leg parlay that won $ 1.2 million on Porter’s Under in the same Kings game in March.
