[Saba Sports News] Chris Paul’s longstanding rivalry with referee Scott Foster took center stage in the recent Golden State Warriors vs. Phoenix Suns game.
Tensions flared just before halftime when Paul, now with the Warriors, was guarding Kevin Durant. A foul call by Foster on Paul led to a heated exchange, resulting in Paul receiving two technical fouls and an ejection. Post-ejection, Paul was seen visibly upset, directing an offensive term at Foster.
This incident adds another chapter to their history, marked by Paul’s teams previously losing 14 straight playoff games officiated by Foster, a streak only broken in April. Despite the on-court drama, the Suns triumphed with a 123-115 win.
