He's a scrub so nobody will miss him except for his brother (who plays for the Nuggets) but this has gotta be one of the dumbest ways to lose your pro sports career besides eating yourself out of the league.

He's the fall guy, or Lebron and the entire league would go six feet under for gambling.

Nah, they canned him because they caught him playing Apex Legends in the locker room.

Gambling would fall under the broader "gaming" term. The NBA's official release is titled "Jontay Porter banned from NBA for violating league's gaming rules."

For ease of access:

A league investigation found that Porter violated league rules by disclosing confidential information to sports bettors, limiting his own participation in one or more games for betting purposes, and betting on NBA games.

The leagues investigation found that prior to the Raptors March 20 game, Porter disclosed confidential information about his own health status to an individual he knew to be an NBA bettor. Another individual with whom Porter associated and knew to be an NBA bettor subsequently placed an $80,000 parlay proposition bet with an online sports book, to win $1.1 million, wagering that Porter would underperform in the March 20 game.
