By The Associated Press

The NBA has banned Toronto player Jontay Porter after a league probe found he disclosed confidential information to sports bettors and bet on games.

Porter, the league said, gave a bettor information about his own health status prior to Toronto’s game on March 20. The league said another individual, known to be an NBA bettor, placed an $80,000 bet that Porter would not hit the numbers set for him in parlays through an online sports book.

That bet would have won $1.1 million. Porter is the second person to be banned by Commissioner Adam Silver for violating league rules. The other was now-former Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling in 2014.

CURRY READY FOR OLYMPIC DEBUT

Their growing family, that is.

Ayesha Curry revealed in March that she is pregnant with the couple’s fourth child and the baby is due in June.

That’s not entirely by accident; the couple thought ahead with hopes of keeping the Olympic months of July and August clear. Just in case.

And USA Basketball made it official Wednesday, saying Curry is on the roster picked for the Paris Games.
