Basketball-Profi Jontay Porter von den Toronto Raptors ist von der NBA lebenslang gesperrt worden. Dem 24-Jährigen wird Wettbetrug vorgeworfen. Das teilte die nordamerikanische Basketball-Profiliga am Mittwoch mit. Eine Untersuchung habe ergeben, dass Porter gegen die Regeln der Liga verstossen habe, in dem er vertrauliche Informationen weitergegeben, seine eigene Teilnahme an einem oder mehreren Spielen zu Wettzwecken eingeschränkt und auf NBA-Spiele gewettet habe.

«Es gibt nichts Wichtigeres, als die Integrität des NBA-Wettbewerbs für unsere Fans, unsere Teams und alle, die mit unserem Sport zu tun haben, zu schützen, weshalb die offensichtlichen Verstösse von Jontay Porter gegen unsere Spielregeln mit der härtesten Strafe geahndet werden», sagte NBA-Kommissar Adam Silver in der Mitteilung.

Seit Wochen war gegen den 24-Jährigen ermittelt worden. Während mehrerer Spiele der Kanadier in dieser Saison waren mutmasslich ungewöhnliche Wetten auf die Leistung des Centers registriert worden.
