Paul Mihalak

Paul Mihalak has worked 527 NBA games and his foul numbers tell bettors exactly what kind of crew chief to expect. His personal fouls per game sit at 46.7, running 1.7% above league average — this ref reads tight and blows the whistle. Free throw attempts follow the same pattern at 55.7 per game, 1.8% above the league baseline, which means trips to the line happen at an elevated rate under Mihalak. That matters for totals bettors: more fouls, more free throws, more stoppages, and a game pace that skews toward higher-scoring outputs driven by foul shooting rather than open-court play. The home team wins 63.2% of games Mihalak officiates, a number that sits well above the standard home-court win rate. That lean is consistent enough to notice. When Mihalak is on the assignment sheet, fade road teams at a higher threshold and expect foul-heavy, free-throw-inflated box scores.
