NBA referee Scott Foster has gone viral for having absolutely no idea who rapper Jack Harlow is. Yes, there are some people who do not even know who Drake is so it ain’t nothing if Foster got no idea who the f*** Jack Harlow is.
Side Action has more;
Notorious NBA ref Scott Foster got the assignment for the first game of the Celtics-Bucks series today. And while many were bracing for some terrible missed calls, he was going viral for another reason during the first half of the game.
When the camera panned to popular rapper, Jack Harlow, in the stands in Boston, Foster was caught on the floor desperately trying to figure out who the young rapper was.
So far, Scott Foster hasn’t had the chance to make any egregiously poor calls. But he riled up the people on Twitter over his mic’d up Jack Harlow moment.
Luckily for Suns fans, Foster isn’t gearing up for their series against the Mavericks. Because throughout his career, the longtime ref has been a bad omen for Chris Paul. In his postseason career, Paul is 0-14 in games in which Foster is reffing.
Perhaps Scott Foster should feel happy that he’s going viral over the Jack Harlow response instead of something more controversial this time.
We know Scott Foster knows who Chris Paul is.
It’s rare for a player to endure a losing streak against an official, but that is what is happening with Chris Paul.
Scott Foster has been an NBA referee for 25 years, and Paul has been in the NBA for 17 himself. While they have been in the league, these two have had a contentious relationship when on the court together.
As a result, Foster has possibly become Paul’s biggest rival in the league. With the Suns’s Game 2 loss vs. Pelicans, Paul has now lost 14 straight games when playing a a game refereed by Foster.
