Jeff Van Gundy’s wife, Kim Van Gundy, tied the knot with the former basketball head coach in 1990. Kim and Jeff are parents to two girls, Mattie and Grayson.
The former NBA head coach, Jeff Van Gundy, fell in love with his wife of 33 years as a high school student. It was Jeff’s not-so-known smile that caught the eyes of Kim.
And though it’s been several years that Jeff has been in the limelight, Kim, on the other hand, doesn’t seem to enjoy it as much. There isn’t any event where Kim has been seen with her famous husband.
After being fired by Houston Rockets in 2007, Jeff took up the new role of analyst at ESPN. But Jeff’s time with ESPN came to an end on June 30 when the company laid off 20 of its on-air talents, including David Pollack.
