Haberstroh wrote an article about CP3 and Foster on his substack but he tweeted out this stat and it’s astounding.

reddit wants me to add more thoughts so I’ll just add that Scott Foster is closely tied with a corrupt gambling ref and shouldn’t have been allowed to officiate for the last 20 years.

Foster is the official who received 134 phone calls from disgraced referee Tim Donaghy between October 2006 and April 2007, as originally reported by FOX News. That was the same period during which Donaghy admitted to betting on NBA games. The report said that Donaghy called Foster more than any other ref and that he didn’t call any other official more than 13 times.

    We also need Chris Paul’s overall record in playoffs when favored for context.

      Not exactly the stat you were looking for in that it’s not counting just games he was favored in but CP’s playoff teams are 70-54 (.564 win percentage) in games Foster isn’t part of the game crew.
