Hello,
I don't know what has been happening but there is certainly something wrong with fouling.My friend's team has got more than 20 fouls in three straight games after that defensive matchups announcment..and few of his players who average like 2,5 fouls a game got 5 or more fouls...Is it just bad games for his team or there is something wrong with the game?

There is a hidden stat for each player (i think it's called physicality) which determines how likely they are to foul. As it's hidden it's best to check how many fouls per game a player gets before you buy him.

Also, the likeliness a player will foul will go down as his defense stats increase.

Hope this helps.

thats certainly not the case,ex:one player who avg. 1,8 fouls a game has 5 fouls for 2 straight games and he hasnt fouled out a single time during his career also all those players have good defence.

A player who averages 5 points a game accross a season can suddenly explode for 20 points on any given night. The "likeliness" doesn't mean he will exactly get XX number of points per game, and the same is true for fouls.

The hidden stat will suggest how likely he is to foul, but for any specific game he could deviate from his average. Just like in real life players who aren't known for fouling could get fouled out on a certain night and there might not be a specific reason why. Just like a player who fouls often can have a string of games where he gets none.

All I'm saying for the game, as a whole, there is a hidden stat that determines how "likely" a player is to foul. This does not mean he will definately get a certain amount unt only that certain amount every game. If your player averages 1.8 fouls a game then it is likely every now and again he'll get in foul trouble.

Hope this has helped.
