White Boy Profile #4: Jeff Foster



Origin: January 16, 1977 in San Antonio, Tx.

Upbringing:  Played his college ball at Southwest Texas State University (Bobby Bouche, anyone?)

Keys to his Game: How on Earth is this guy an 11 year NBA veteran?  He has never averaged more than 7 points or 9 rebounds.  He is perfectly mediocre.  Keys to his game?  He sets great screens.  Seriously.  He is a marginal rebounder for his height.  He covers the baseline.  Bless his heart, he has earned over $40 million in the NBA.  

Best White Boy Feature: It is a tie between his pre-balding poof and his appeared cluelessnesss

youtube:


Interesting observations:  Again, how has this guy pulled in $40 million?  The most points he ever scored in a game was 19... twice.  11 year pro and he never even broke the 20 point barrier.  I got to give the guy credit.  White boys have a unique ability of just remaining mediocre.

NBA Career:  Only in Indiana can  Jeff Foster remain relevant for a decade.  How is it that this guy is an NBA vet when this guy never even sniffed the court 
Amazing.  Watching this video is sad to think this kid never had a legitimate shot.

Nickname(s): N/A
Proposed New Nickname:  Survivor Man

Closest Comparison (Current or Historic): 

ALL THE WAY!!!

White Boy Level: 5 out 10.  Pedestrian white boy who never broke double digits in rebounds or points

Skill Level: 3 out of 10.  Jeff Foster, you will never cease to amaze me.
