NBA official Scott Foster had a strange moment occur to him during Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday night.
The incident took place less than two minutes into the first quarter, as Foster took an elbow from Thunder guard Luguentz Dort during a jump ball situation. This resulted in him suffering a nose injury as he was visibly bleeding from that area.
