heavy.com/sports/nba/jontay-porter-gamble-suspension/
Quick Glance: Lifetime Ban as Warning to NBA Gamblers: Coach
- Commissioner Adam Silver's firm stance on Raptors bench player Jontay Porter serves as a cautionary tale for potential NBA gamblers.
- The NBA's decision to ban Jontay Porter due to his involvement in gambling did not come as a surprise to anyone in the league.
- NBA bit players pose a gambling risk and were seen as an ideal example in this cautionary tale, as mentioned by an NBA coach.
- Porter's limited significance as a player will lead to the story fading quickly, even though it may be referenced in relation to his brother Michael Porter Jr. and the Nuggets during the playoffs.

Quick Glance: Rudy Gobert Fined $100K for Inappropriate Gestures Toward Refs
- Following Rudy Gobert's money gesture towards the referees in the fourth quarter and his public criticism of the officiating, the NBA imposed a $100,000 fine on the Minnesota Timberwolves center.
- Gobert's actions on the court may have had more significant consequences than just the monetary penalty. His technical foul allowed Cavaliers guard Darius Garland to sink a crucial free throw, tying the score and leading the game into overtime.
