Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman praised Caitlin Clark
Former point guard Nancy Lieberman recently praised Iowa women's basketball sensation Caitlin Clark due to her impact by comparing her with Michael Jordan.
She stressed the fact that Caitlin's effect has changed women's basketball in the last few years. The 65-year-old took no time in calling her a "GOAT" in the game.
“She’s won my award three times. Well, she will win it this year for the third time, in my opinion. And she is legitimately the GOAT, I don’t really care what anybody else [thinks]. Nobody in the history of the game has done what she’s done,” Lieberman said per Jacob Uitti of The Guardian.
“I’m sure some people will say she has to win a championship and I agree a championship means something," she added. "[But] Michael Jordan didn’t win a championship for the first [seven] years he was in the league.”
