Nancy Lieberman hits back at Jeff Teague over 'not that good' remark on Caitlin Clark (Image Source: Getty Images) A heated exchange has erupted in the basketball world after former NBA guard Jeff Teague downplayed rookie Caitlin Clark's skills, calling her 'good but not that good' on a podcast. The comment didn't sit well with Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman, who fired back publicly and firmly. Her bold words defending Clark have now sparked fresh debate online, drawing attention from fans, analysts, and players across both the NBA and WNBA. A Hall of Famer responds after Jeff Teague downplays rising star Caitlin Clark On August 5, former WNBA player and Basketball Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman spoke out strongly after former NBA guard Jeff Teague made surprising comments about Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark on a recent episode of the Club 520 Podcast. Teague said Clark "is good but she's not that good", a remark that quickly went viral and upset many fans. Lieberman, a longtime advocate for women's basketball and one of the sport's legends, responded in a way that caught attention. Her sharp reply came through a post on X, where she questioned Teague's legacy and defended Clark's growing impact on the game. Nancy Lieberman calls out Jeff Teague publicly with tough words and facts Nancy Lieberman didn't hold back. In her X post shared on Monday, August 5, she said: 'Jeff Teague, I love you, but you weren't a great player. You were serviceable.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like MarvelGrip: Easy to Use (Check It Out) Marvel Grip Undo Nancy Lieberman, who is 66 and a former Olympian and WNBA coach, didn't hold back. She reminded Jeff Teague about his own time in the NBA. She said he had some good moments, but he wasn't the kind of player who changed the game. Teague played in the league from 2009 to 2021, made one All-Star team, and won a title with the Bucks in 2021 — but Lieberman made it clear there's a big gap between being decent and being great. Teague made his original statement during an episode of the Club 520 Podcast, which was uploaded on YouTube on August 3, 2025. During the discussion, Teague said of Caitlin Clark: 'She's good... but she's not that good.' Having previously played for the Iowa Hawkeyes and presently playing for the Indiana Fever, Caitlin Clark has been dominating the news all season. Not only because of her court play, but also due to the fervent opinions surrounding her first year in the league, she has been much discussed. Lieberman's comments followed a strong reaction from WNBA and NBA fans online. Some supported Teague, saying expectations around Clark are too high, too soon. But others, like Lieberman, believe Clark deserves more respect.

'Maybe it's useless' - Sophie Cunningham reacts after WNBA fines her for podcast remarks
'Maybe it's useless' - Sophie Cunningham reacts after WNBA fines her for podcast remarks (Image Source: Getty Images) Sophie Cunningham, guard for the Indiana Fever, is back in the headlines, this time, not for her game, but for her words. The WNBA veteran recently launched her own podcast, giving fans a closer look into her thoughts. But one strong opinion has already drawn action from the league. Now, her voice off the court is causing just as much buzz as her plays on it. Sophie Cunningham fined after first podcast episode launched On July 31, Sophie Cunningham, guard for the Indiana Fever, released the first episode of her podcast called 'Show Me Something.' The podcast was filmed just days after her social media went viral for her strong defense of rookie teammate Caitlin Clark. In the debut episode, Sophie Cunningham openly criticized WNBA referees. She said, 'If I was a ref, I know I would mess up all the time… but when it is a simple call right in front of your face multiple times, what are you doing?' Due to those remarks, the WNBA fined her $1,500. She revealed the fine on August 5, 2025, during the second episode of her podcast. Cunningham had already been fined $500 on July 23, for a TikTok video she posted the week before. In the video, she lip-synced to the lyrics 'Stupid or is it slow? Maybe it's useless?' from the song 'Manchild' by Sabrina Carpenter, while tagging referees with the caption '@ some refs.' Cunningham calls the WNBA fines 'a joke' while others agree officiating is an issue Sophie Cunningham didn't hold back in her reaction. On the podcast released on August 5, she said, 'You fining me $500 is not going to do shit… and then I'll get fined for that, and then I'll get fined for this, and the fines will continue.' Cunningham, who is now in her sixth season, has seen a huge rise in social media followers, 1.6 million on TikTok and 1.2 million on Instagram, after standing up for Caitlin Clark in multiple games this season. While Sophie Cunningham may be the loudest voice right now, she isn't the only one pointing fingers at referees. On July 1, Angel Reese of the Chicago Sky said in a press conference, 'Officiating in this league has to be fixed.' Back in October 2024, after the WNBA Finals, Cheryl Reeve, head coach of the Minnesota Lynx, said the title was 'stolen' from her team due to bad calls. Even WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert spoke on this at the All-Star Game in June 2025, saying, 'We hear the concerns and are working on improvements.' The conversation around referee decisions isn't going away anytime soon, and players like Cunningham are making sure of it.

In the last week, the league has been affected by three such incidents. Following this, the Indiana Fever guard took to her Instagram Stories to express her opinion on the whole thing. On social media earlier this week, the 28-year-old had previously urged people to refrain from tossing such items during the game.
