A product of Cajun country in south Louisiana, Jeff played football through high school, and baseball through college and beyond. After getting a BFA from the Savannah College of Art & Design, he moved to London, where he worked for Sky Sports and coached the 2005 British Champion Croydon Pirates baseball team. He also cooks a mean jambalaya.
Update:

Ever since his one-and-done year at UCLA, Kevon Looney has been the central cog of the Golden State Warriors attack. At 6 foot 9, this power forward is strong in the paint and averaged 15.1 rebounds per game against the Kings this post season.

A stalwart center, Looney has helped the Warriors win three championships in 2017, 2018, and 2022. After those efforts, the Warriors wanted to make sure that they held onto their man, signing him to a brand new contract last summer.

The deal is worth $22.5 million over three years and will see a guaranteed $7.5 million next year and $8 million in his third year, which becomes fully guaranteed if the Warriors win the title.

Due to enter free agency in 2025, the Warriors will certainly want to extend his contract with them. If they balk at the idea, however, he will enter unrestricted free agency and should that come to pass, you can expect Looney to be one of the hottest commodities in the NBA.
