Is the NBA legally obligated to police the order around of prop betting on their league? Why is this an NBA investigation versus legal charges filed by a gambling company? I'd guess it is because the NBA's 'partnerships' with gambling companies do obligate them to police betting on their sport, and that's interesting to think about, that responsibility and accountability to gambling companies. If this were a legal thing, I think Jontay would get more of the "innocent until proven guilty" sentiment. But the gambling companies have the NBA doing their biding, may wish to make an example out of Jontay as a deterrent to others more than anything here, and they get to appear uninvolved as this is an 'NBA investigation.'
