2024-2025 End of the Season Donkies

Finally, able to bring back the End of the Season Donkies after Yahoo! fixed the data issues. I think I'll adopt the format of the Midseason Donkies from this year where I'll post the awards first then top 25 foulers by team as I think that's an interesting thing to see especially at the end of a season. 

The Roger Murdock Persistent Fouling Award (Most Personal Fouls): 
Jaren Jackson Jr. finished with the most fouls with 257
 
The Shawn Kemp Award (Most Foul Outs): 
LaMelo Ball finished with the most foul outs with 7

The Rasheed Wallace Legacy Award (Most Technical Fouls):
Anthony Edwards finished with 17 Technical Fouls

The Charles Oakley Award (Most Flagrant Fouls):
Jaren Jackson Jr. finished with 5 Flagrant Fouls

The Dennis Rodman Award (Most Ejections)
 Nic Claxton, Isaiah Stewart, and Fred VanVleet finished with 3 ejections each
 
Donkies by Position  Note Stat Lines below are: (Personal Fouls-Foul Outs-Techies-Ejections-Flagrants):

PG: Cade Cunningham with 1615 points (195-1-10-1-1)

SG: Luguentz Dort with 1540 points (208-1-4-2-1)

SF: Jaden McDaniels with 1545 points (225-2-3-1-1)

PF: Dillon Brooks with 2250 points (242-5-16-1-0)

C: Isaiah Stewart with 2275 points (183-3-14-3-4)

*Positions are based on actual depth charts if the player is eligible for multiple positions

6th Man Award (Highest Point total for a fouler who went undrafted): Isaiah Stewart with 2275 points (183-3-14-3-4)

Most Valuable Fouler (MVF): Isaiah Stewart with 2275 points (183-3-14-3-4)
 
So the number 1 fouler went undrafted, this may not have happened since DeMarcus Cousins rookie year. He was the Midseason MVF too so that's a pretty incredible pickup by Pgastan FC. If PFC didn't pick him up GG Foulin' probably would have clinched the league weeks ago.  
 
We had 4 foulers over 2000 points this year:
 
Isaiah Stewart - 2275 
Dillon Brooks - 2250
Draymond Green - 2135
Jaren Jackson Jr. - 2105
 
Karl-Anthony Towns was in 5th at 1905 but after him there was a pretty big drop to 6th. That was Nic Claxton who finished with 1690 points. We had 80 foulers finish over 1000 points. 

Let's look at a Foul Club by Foul Club breakdown of who has the most top 25 foulers at the end of the season. 
 
Team Name - Number of Foulers in top 25 (specific rank of those players)
Teams in order of current standings

GG Foulin' - 5 (5th, 7th, 9th, 22nd, 23rd)
Pgastan FC - 6 (1st, 8th, 10th. 11th, 18th, 25th)
Rodman'sWeddingDress - 2 (2nd, 12th)
F'N FLOPPERS - 4 (3rd, 6th, 13th, 15th)
Baltimore Hitsquad - 3 (17th, 19th, 21st)
Arlington Assaulters - 2 (4th, 14th)
Ohsnappers!!! - 2 (16th, 20th)
Oww Ming's Flagrants -  1 (24th)
Gamblor -  0
 
So, Pgastan FC finished with the most top 25 foulers but failed to win the league, instead finishing 2nd on the podium Rodman'sWeddingDress only finished with 2 top 25 foulers but finished the league in 3rd place. 

Let's take a look at MVF scoring records. Keeping in mind we're missing 2022-2023 due to Yahoo donking it and the first season of 2009-2010 as I don't think I could get those numbers when I first compiled this list.

MVF Scoring Records:
1. DeMarcus Cousins: 3120 Points (2010-11)
2. DeMarcus Cousins: 2865 Points (2012-13)
3. DeMarcus Cousins: 2730 Points (2016-17)
4. Dillon Brooks: 2585 (2023-2024)
5. Patrick Beverley: 2525 Points (2018-19)
6. Karl-Anthony Towns: 2515 Points: (2021-22)
7. Markieff Morris: 2505 Points (2014-15)
8. DeMarcus Cousins: 2380 Points (2015-16)
9. DeMarcus Cousins: 2345 Points (2011-12)
10. DeMarcus Cousins: 2330 Points (2013-14)
11. Isaiah Stewart: 2275 Points (2024-25)
12. Dillon Brooks: 2270 Points (2019-20)
13. Dwight Howard: 2265 Points (2017-18) 
14. Dwight Howard: 2220 Points (2020-21)

So that wraps up the 16th season the National Foul Association. Until next year.

Well that's it for now.
 
Keep Foulin' Y'all!
