NBA Commissioner reveals major issue in sports betting

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver made a pretty clear admission about the league's role in the state of sports betting. Speaking at the Associated Press Sports Editors Commissioners Conference on Monday, Silver commented on a question about the lifelong ban the league placed on ex-NBA player Jontay Porter for gambling violations by admitting that the league has its hands tied a little bit when it comes to betting. "We only have so much control," Silver said.
