The Bucks/Bulls NBA boxscore has Michael Bobiak , Michael Henderson and Corey McCray as the officials. Can you provide a reference with MuCutchen or confirm that you saw the game and who the other 2 refs were?


The Thunder/Hornets NBA boxscore has Tom Sterner, Andre Crawford and Jeff Wooten as the officials. I've added Sterner to the list of NBA replacement refs. His assignment is interesting. He apparently replaced Marcus Clayton at the last minute since Clayton was on the NBA assignment list the morning of the game. Tom Sterner has also been an NBA assistant coach with multiple teams and I didn't find any other internet references to him as a referee.

I've been googling the teams that play with the words Bucks vs Bulls box score and then I click on the ESPN address. This one was
Chicago Bulls vs. Milwaukee Bucks - Box Score - October 10, 2009 - ESPN. Obviously the one you showed me did not have Monty McCutchen. I have no idea which is the better resource. Hope I have not caused you any problems. It would be much easier if the USA Today boxscore would have the officials like they normally do, but that is not the case

I appreciate the second look and the help. Monty McCutchen worked last season as a regular NBA referee. If he is still on the NBA roster and worked a pre-season game, he would be the only one to cross the line. For now, I'll go with the NBA.com boxscore and assignment list over the ESPN boxscore that listed Monty McCutchen. I'll keep an eye open to see if he pops up elsewhere.
