A New Era of Player Development for BYU Basketball
As the BYU basketball program continues to evolve under the guidance of head coach Kevin Young, the team has taken another significant step towards modeling itself after an NBA organization. The latest development is the hiring of Jordan Brady as the Director of Player Development, a move that is set to take the team’s individual player growth to the next level.
Brady brings a wealth of experience to the role, having worked with players at the highest level.
“We are thrilled to welcome Jordan and his family to BYU,” Young said in a statement. “Jordan is the perfect fit for this role, with his experience working with players at the highest level and his knowledge of what it takes to succeed.”
Brady’s impressive resume boasts a stint as the head coach of the Wisconsin Herd, the NBA affiliate of the Milwaukee Bucks, from 2017-2019. He has also spent time as an assistant coach for the Windy City Bulls. His playing career took him to UVU and Salt Lake Community College, where he was coached by none other than Kevin Young himself.
Brady’s playing experience and coaching background make him an ideal fit for the role.
Having someone with Brady’s credentials on staff, dedicated solely to player development, will be a game-changer for the individual growth of each player. In the NBA, each coach is typically responsible for the development of 2-3 players. With Brady on board, BYU basketball has the potential to set up their player development plan in a similar format, allowing for more personalized attention and growth opportunities for each player.
The addition of Brady is set to take BYU basketball’s player development to new heights.
As the team looks to the future, the hiring of Jordan Brady is a significant step in the right direction. With his wealth of experience and knowledge, he is poised to make a lasting impact on the program and help take BYU basketball to new heights.
The partnership between Young and Brady is set to be a winning combination for BYU basketball.
