Former NBA player Jeff Teague has stirred controversy by sharing eyebrow-raising anecdotes involving referees Scott Foster and Tony Brothers during his time in the league.
Teague, who recently appeared on the Club 520 Podcast, didn"t hold back as he recounted his encounters with the two officials, shedding light on what he described as “crazy" situations.

In his candid revelations, Teague didn"t mince words about his disdain for Scott Foster, accusing him of bias and alleging that Foster deliberately targeted him during games.
“What"s the one cheating CP all the time? Scott Foster," Teague recalled. “I ain"t like him. I called him a f***** h** a** n****," recalled Teague. “Every time I seen him, he ain"t call sh*t. I was like, ‘Damn, he f**ked me up," the player revealed that Foster apparently targeted him after the ordeal.
Equally troubling was Teague"s recollection of an incident involving referee Tony Brothers, which took place during a game between the Atlanta Hawks and the Indiana Pacers.
Teague said, “I was on the Hawks & we were playing the Pacers, my momma & my aunt were sitting courtside & cheering everytime I came in the game, then Tony Brothers pulled me to the side & he was like: Who them h*es?"
“I lost it. I went crazy. He was like apologizing, and I was like ‘N**** that"s my momma." I started going crazy," Teague added.
“He kept apologizing, but if you know him, he be trying to be cool. He be like ‘How are you m***********s doing?" and be that kinda person," Teague said, criticizing Brothers for what he perceives to be the official trying too hard to be cool with the players.
