Good news, NBA referee Scott Foster returns due to injury, to enforce the Nuggets and Thunder s G2

NBA referee Scott Foster will return in the Nuggets' second game against the Thunder on Wednesday.

Oklahoma City Thunder will host the Denver Nuggets at home for Game 2 of the Western Conference second round series Wednesday night. In Game 1, Aaron Gordon's last-minute shot helped the Nuggets lead 1-0, and the Thunder completed a small rout at the last moment. The second game made headlines because it will be the first game of the NBA's most famous referee Scott Foster in the past two months.

According to Bleacher Report on X (formerly Twitter), "Scott Foster is in good shape and will enforce the second game of the Nuggets against the Thunder after being out for seven weeks."

The report noted that this will be Foster's first game since he suffered a calf injury during the New York Knicks' match against the Miami Heat on March 18.

Foster's reputation among NBA fans and players is not flawless, and some have noticed that Chris Paul often loses in his law enforcement games. Some fans even jokingly call Foster a "spreader" because it is believed that in Foster's law enforcement games, some series will be extended to a game that may be a winner.

However, most of the attention on Wednesday night will be focused on the Nuggets and the Thunder, who played a brilliant basketball showdown in their first game on Monday.

The two MVP favorites in this series are Nikola Jokic and Shea Gilgers-Alexander, both of whom compete in the first game. Jokic scored 42 points in the game, including several key points, while Shea Gilgers-Alexander scored 33 points.

The victory or defeat of this game is likely to depend on which team's lineup can withstand the pressure, and on Monday, Denver showed its strength at the last moment.

Anyway, the second game of the series will be held at 9:30 pm ET in Oklahoma City, with Scott Foster returning to the field. The game will be broadcast nationwide by TNT TV.
