NBA Finals: Chris Paul, referee Scott Foster reunite for Game 6 with Suns on brink of elimination

MILWAUKEE – He's back.

Scott Foster will be head referee for Tuesday night's Game 6 at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee as the Phoenix Suns look to avoid elimination and force a Game 7 Thursday in Phoenix.

Why is this news?

All-Star point guard Chris Paul has a history with the 54-year-old Foster that could make Suns fans queasy right now.

In the last 12 playoff games Paul has played in which Foster was a referee, his team has gone 0-12. That includes Game 3 of the finals, which Phoenix lost by 20 to Milwaukee.

The Bucks then won Game 4 at home and Game 5 in Phoenix to take a 3-2 series lead.
