NCAA president Charlie Baker announced Wednesday that the organization is aiming to ban all college prop betting markets available on North American sportsbooks.
Baker’s statement comes two days after it was reported that Raptors forward Jontay Porter is facing an NBA probe over irregularities related to his prop bet markets.
“Sports betting issues are on the rise across the country, with prop bets continuing to threaten the integrity of competition and leading to student-athletes and professional athletes getting harassed,” Baker said.
