The NBA has opened an investigation into Toronto two-way player Jontay Porter amid gambling allegations

MARCH 26, 2024 • Associated Press

Under investigation for gambling Porter has been away from the team because he's the subject of an NBA investigation into irregularities on prop betting involving him, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Porter was already ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets, which would've marked a second straight absence due to personal reasons. However, it appears he'll be unavailable for much longer than just a few games if he's being investigated by the NBA. Before his recent absence, Porter had played in six straight games and averaged 5.8 points, 4.3 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks in 19.3 minutes during that stretch.

Remains out for Monday Porter (personal) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Porter will miss his second straight contest while attending to a personal matter. Mouhamadou Gueye, Jordan Nwora and Jalen McDaniels should continue to benefit as a result of Porter's absence.

MARCH 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Saturday Porter is out for Saturday's game versus the Wizards due to personal reasons, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

Impact Porter's absence will likely open up minutes fro Mouhamadou Gueye, Jordan Nwora and Jalen McDaniels. Porter's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Brooklyn.

MARCH 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go against Thunder Porter (illness) isn't on the injury report for Friday's game versus the Thunder.

Impact Porter is set to play Friday after leaving Wednesday's contest early with a non-COVID illness. Porter is averaging 6.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.6 blocks and 1.2 steals in 21.6 minutes across his previous five outings.

MARCH 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return Wednesday Porter will not return to Wednesday's game due to an illness, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.

Impact Porter only lasted three minutes before tapping out due to the illness, finishing with two rebounds and nothing else to his credit. Porter's next chance to play will come Friday against the Thunder.

MARCH 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Swats four shots vs. Pistons Porter posted 10 points (3-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, six assists, four blocks and one steal in 21 minutes during Wednesday's 113-104 loss to Detroit.

Impact Porter played 20-plus minutes for the second straight game with Chris Boucher sidelined with a partial MCL tear in his right knee. Porter built off his 14-point performance Monday with a solid 10/6/6 statline, and his four blocks were both a game and career-high. He looks to be a part of the Raptors' rotation moving forward with both Boucher and Jakob Poeltl (finger) out indefinitely.

MARCH 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Career-best night Monday Porter ended with 14 points (5-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt), two rebounds, five assists and one steal across 22 minutes during Monday's 125-119 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Facing older brother Michael Porter on an NBA court for the first time in their careers, Jontay rose to the occasion and set new career highs in scoring and made three-pointers. With Jakob Poeltl (finger) and Chris Boucher (knee) both sidelined, there could be consistent minutes available in the Toronto frontcourt for Porter over the next couple weeks.

MARCH 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Well-rounded line in G League win Porter supplied 21 points (7-15 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, two steals and one block across 36 minutes in Raptors 905's 135-125 win over Rip City on Tuesd...

Impact Porter turned in the second-highest scoring and rebounding totals on Raptors 905 for the night while checking in third in assists. The five made threes were also a season high for Porter, who's proven capable of contributing across the stat sheet.

MARCH 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Available for Wednesday Porter (ankle) will be available for Wednesday's game versus the Pacers.

Impact Porter could play some marginal minutes behind Kelly Olynyk Wednesday evening, but it's unlikely he'll be a large enough part of the rotation to make an impact in fantasy hoops.

FEBRUARY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Upgraded to questionable Porter (ankle) has been upgraded to questionable ahead of Wednesday's tilt with Indiana.

Impact Porter was listed as "doubtful" on the initial injury report, so he is trending in the right direction. However, he's not a large enough part of the rotation for his playing status to impact fantasy hoops.

FEBRUARY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Doubtful for Wednesday Porter is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Pacers with a right ankle sprain.

Impact The Raptors will likely play it safe with the All-Star break looming. Porter's expected absence probably won't affect the rotation much, as he's played a total of 21 minutes across three February appearances.

FEBRUARY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Gets 11 minutes in return Porter (back) tallied seven points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal across 11 minutes in Friday's 107-104 win over the Raptors.

Impact Porter stepped back in as the Raptors' backup center after a four-game absence due to a back spasms. He and Thaddeus Young worked in a timeshare at center for much of January, but even though Young has since been traded away, Porter's outlook for playing time looks muddled moving forward. The Raptors recently returned starting center Jakob Poeltl from an extended absence due to a sprained ankle and acquired another veteran big man (Kelly Olynyk) on Thursday, potentially leaving Porter third on the depth chart. Olynyk didn't play Friday in a coach's decision, but he'll presumably enter the rotation as Poeltl's primary backup once he's had a chance to practice with the Raptors.

FEBRUARY 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared to play vs. Houston Porter (back) is available for Friday's game against Houston, Vivek Jacob of the Raptors' official site reports.

Impact Porter was upgraded to probable a few hours before Friday's tipoff, so his status isn't particularly surprising. However, he'll likely see limited run since Kelly Olynyk will make his team debut for Toronto on Friday.

FEBRUARY 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Upgraded to probable Porter (back) has been upgraded to probable for Friday's game against the Rockets.

Impact Porter was initially questionable for Friday's matchup, but he's trending in the right direction ahead of tipoff. However, his role against the Rockets could depend on whether Kelly Olynyk (trade pending) is able to make his team debut.

FEBRUARY 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy against Houston Porter (back) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Rockets.

Impact Porter is in danger of missing his fifth consecutive contest Friday with back spasms. Porter will likely compete for backup center minutes with Kelly Olynyk (trade pending) when available.

FEBRUARY 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Officially out Porter (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Hornets.

Impact Porter will miss a fourth straight game due to back spasms. His next chance to suit up will be Friday versus Houston.

FEBRUARY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Downgraded to doubtful Porter (back) is now listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game versus the Hornets.

Impact Porter is expected to miss his fourth straight game Wednesday after being downgraded from questionable to doubtful due to back spasms. Thaddeus Young will likely continue to receive increased playing time if Porter is further downgraded to out.

FEBRUARY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Upgraded to questionable Porter (back) has been upgraded to questionable for Wednesday's game against Charlotte, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

Impact Porter is amid a three-game absence due to back spasms. Barring new injuries, Porter would slot into a fully healthy Raptors' frontcourt if he's able able to suit up Wednesday, likely operating behind Jakob Poeltl and potentially in tandem with Thaddeus Young off the bench.

FEBRUARY 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Monday Porter (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pelicans, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

Impact Porter continues to deal with a back injury, and he'll remain sidelined for the second half of a back-to-back set. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return, but his next chance to do so will be Wednesday against the Hornets.

FEBRUARY 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out again Sunday Porter (back) will not play in Sunday's game against the Thunder, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Sunday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, so this doesn't bode well for Porter's status against the Pelicans on Monday. Thaddeus Young will likely absorb the backup center minutes in the meantime.

FEBRUARY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Friday's game Porter (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Rockets, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.

Impact Porter was considered doubtful for Friday's matchup, so his lack of availability isn't very surprising. His next opportunity to suit up will be Sunday against the Thunder, while Thaddeus Young could see additional playing time Friday.

FEBRUARY 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to play Friday Porter (back) is doubtful for Friday's game versus the Rockets, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Porter is expected to miss Friday's contest due to a back injury he suffered against Chicago. With Jakob Poeltl (ankle) questionable, Thaddeus Young should continue to receive increased minutes against Houston.
