Jontay Porter investigation reveals perils of sports gambling to NBA

The Golden State Warriors know all about gambling. Whether it’s spending the No. 2 pick in the draft on a raw teenager with limited on-court experience, or signing a long-term deal with the world’s shadiest cryptocurrency exchange, the Warriors are prepared to bet on risky outcomes. But not, you know, actually bet.

To make a complex story short, there were two separate games where DraftKings saw heavy betting on the “under” side of Porter’s player props.
