Jeff Teague carved out an 11-year NBA career highlighted by an All-Star selection in 2015 with the Atlanta Hawks. Known for his quickness and playmaking, Teague was a key contributor during the Hawks’ 60-win season and later won an NBA championship with the Milwaukee Bucks in 2021 before retiring.

Since stepping away from the court, Teague has built a new reputation as one of the NBA’s most unfiltered voices. Through his Club 520 podcast, the former point guard has gained attention for his blunt and often viral takes on players, games, and league history. His latest remark has once again sparked debate.

During a recent episode of his Club 520 podcast, Teague singled out former Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala, saying he had the weakest statistical profile of any All-Star.

“He made the All Star one time and y’all can ask Lou Will,” Teague said. “He made the All Star one time because the coach didn’t want Lou Will to make it. Lou Will was the leading scorer. People said I had the worst stats as a All Star. That (Iguodala) is the worst stats ever. I’m sorry those are the weakest stats for All Star. I love Andre Iguodala and he’s a champion. 12 and 5 bro, I averaged that my third year.”

Iguodala’s lone All-Star appearance came in 2012 as a member of the Philadelphia 76ers. That season, he averaged 12.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, and 5.5 assists per game while serving as the team’s defensive anchor and versatile playmaker. While his numbers were modest compared to typical All-Stars, his all-around impact and the Sixers’ success helped earn him the nod.

Andre Iguodala’s NBA Legacy

Although Teague downplayed his All-Star résumé, Iguodala’s NBA legacy is secure. A four-time champion with the Warriors, he played a central role in the franchise’s dynasty run and won the 2015 NBA Finals MVP for his defense against LeBron James. He also averaged 16.3 points, 5.8 rebounds and 4.0 assists in 6 games in that series, helping the Warriors win their first NBA title in 40 years.

Over his 19-year career, Iguodala became known as one of the league’s best perimeter defenders and a consummate teammate. Beyond his lone All-Star selection, his contributions to Golden State’s championship era and his leadership cement his place as one of the most respected veterans of his generation.
