Jeff was one of the heroes in recent Euroleague game vs Zalgiris where he recorded PIR of 26 in just 13 minutes on the floor.

All of us had great pleasure to work with Jeff. He is an excellent player and unbelievably positive person. He signed short-term contract but demonstrated amazing work ethic and desire to learn the details of our game, specifics of European basketball, he became a friend for many guys on our team. I am sure that Jeff will not stay away from basketball for too long, I sincerely wish him good luck in his career.
