Caitlin Clark gets a big thank you from Nancy Lieberman: 'We shouldn't hate on her'

Nancy Lieberman wants any of the hate to stop when it comes to Caitlin Clark.

The women's hoops legend and basketball broadcaster was on the mic for the Indiana Fever and Dallas Wings game and she had some strong words for critics of Clark.

"When I walked in before the game, there were hundreds of fans lined up," she started. "What Caitlin Clark has done for the game is generational, and as a baller to a baller, I just want to say thank you to you ... for lifting our game up, you and so many great players."

"You are going to make all these women multi-millionaires one day," she continued. "Like Tiger did, like Michael Jordan did. We shouldn't hate on her. We should celebrate her, not tolerate her."

She joined LeBron James with that similar sentiment, and I'm glad she mentioned other players, too.
