NBA game-fixers charged

MANILA, Philippines — US authorities have charged three individuals with conspiring with an NBA player to rig basketball games, New York prosecutors said Thursday.

In April, the NBA banned Toronto Raptors forward Jontay Porter for life after a bombshell probe found he bet on league matches.

Porter’s name is redacted in the indictment by Brooklyn federal prosecutors, but game dates and other details in the document match up with Porter.
