I think the only way anything will ever be done about Foster is if fans ruin the TV product with chanting. If every time Foster does anything, the entire stadium starts chanting “Donaghy”, then the NBA will be forced to do something. The NBA cant afford to lose credibility, so if Donaghy trends on twitter after every game and people start googling Donaghy bc they heard the chants, its going to damage the league’s reputation. Once casual fans start to learn about Foster’s connection to Donaghy, mainstream sports media is going to jump on this storyline and presumably make a ton of money off of it.
The thing is, this could be one of those many instances where this sub cares about something that majority of fans that go to the games don't care much about. /r/nba is a major echo chamber, and we tend to forget that sometimes. Of course given that the Warriors are affected this time, it may reach many more people than when CP3 was a Sun or a Clipper lol.
