Former NBA Player Jontay Porter Pleads Guilty to Wire Fraud in Betting Scandal

Porter faces up to four years in prison after admitting to rigging games to settle gambling debts.

Porter was banned from the NBA for life in April for violating league gambling rules.
He conspired with four others to manipulate game outcomes for betting purposes.
Porter withdrew from games early to ensure his co-conspirators' bets would succeed.
He admitted to gambling on NBA games, including those involving his own team.
Sentencing is scheduled for December 18, with potential fines and restitution.
