NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has made his first public comments on the ongoing gambling scandal that has hit the league this week. "There's nothing more important to the league and its fans than the integrity of the competition," Silver said during the Friday, October 24, pregame NBA on Prime broadcast. "So I had a pit in my stomach. It was very upsetting." Silver, 63, went on to tell reporter Cassidy Hubbarth ahead of the New York Knicks game against the Boston Celtics that he is "deeply disturbed" by the situation.
