Jontay Porter

The investigation found that Porter provided health information to bettors that led them to place large wagers on his performances. The bets included successful wagers on the Raptors losing and Porter underperforming, which triggered the investigation.

Porter was ruled out for Monday’s game against the Nets for “personal reasons” and may not be cleared to return until the investigation is completed. While this frees up minutes off the bench for Jalen McDaniels and Mouhamadou Gueye, neither needs to be added immediately. Fantasy managers can watch both on Monday to better understand the minutes’ distribution and players’ production.

Add Porter’s name to the list of Raptors players who will not be available for Saturday’s game. His absence will free up additional minutes for Jalen McDaniels and Mouhamadou Gueye, neither of whom need to be streamed in most fantasy leagues.

Porter was forced to exit Wednesday’s loss to the Kings after playing three minutes. His removal from the injury report is good news for Toronto, which is light on bodies in the frontcourt. Porter should be rostered in deep leagues, with the Raptors essentially playing out the string.
