Jeff Van Gundy Landed This New NBA Coaching Gig

Longtime former NBA head coach and broadcaster Jeff Van Gundy has reportedly been hired by the Los Angeles Clippers as the lead assistant to head coach Ty Lue after spending the past season as a senior consultant for the NBA champion Boston Celtics, ESPN's Adrian Wojnnarowski reports.

Van Gundy, 62, had previously worked as the head coach of the New York Knicks from 1996 to 2001 and the Houston Rockets from 2003 to 2007 before working as an analyst for ESPN from 2007 to 2023.

"Van Gundy’s considered one of the finest minds in basketball and had been pursued for years to rejoin coaching on a full-time basis. He led the Knicks and Rockets to 430 regular-season and 44 playoff wins over 11 seasons," Wojnarowski wrote on his X account Tuesday (June 18) morning.
