The Boston Celtics have hired Jeff Van Gundry as a senior consultant. It’s expected that Van Gundy will work with both the coaching staff and the front office in his role. In addition, he’ll work with the Maine Celtics of the G League. Van Gundy will not have an active role day-to-day on the Celtics bench as a part of the coaching staff.
Van Gundy was a head coach in the NBA for 11 seasons, spending seven years with the New York Knicks and four with the Houston Rockets. The veteran coach had one losing record in those 11 years. Van Gundy helped lead the Knicks to the 1999 NBA Finals.
For the last 16 seasons, Van Gundy has worked as a broadcaster for ESPN. He also coached Team USA in 2017, and helped lead the team to a 2019 FIBA World Cup berth.
