Kevin Foster (born June 17, 1990) is an American professional basketball player who last played for Beşiktaş of the Turkish Basketball League (TBL). The 6 ft 2 in (1.88 m) shooting guard played college basketball for Santa Clara University between 2008–09 and 2012–13. Foster made 431 three-point field goals in his career, which is tied for the fourth-most all-time in NCAA Division I history. He finished his collegiate career as Santa Clara's all-time leading scorer with 2,423 points, which is also the most in San Francisco Bay Area Division I history and second most in West Coast Conference history. Foster holds a rare distinction of being named a most valuable player (MVP) in two different postseason tournaments: the 2011 CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament (CIT) and the 2013 College Basketball Invitational (CBI), both of which Santa Clara won.

Foster, a native of Katy, Texas, attended Morton Ranch High School. As a junior he was named to the All-District 18-5A First Team and the All-Greater Houston Second Team. In his senior year, Foster averaged 21 points per game and was named the MVP and All-District 18-5A First Team. He was also a Texas top-30 player his final season.

In his freshman season in 2008–09, Foster averaged 14.7 points and 2.5 assists per game and was named the WCC Co-Newcomer of the Year, WCC All-Freshman Team and Freshman All-American Team. He broke Kurt Rambis' freshman year scoring record, Steve Nash's single-season three-pointers made record and four other freshman class records in the process. In his true sophomore year, he only played in six total games before suffering a season-ending foot injury, so he was able to redshirt the 2009–10 season.
