After his college career, he was drafted by the Boston Celtics. He played for Boston (with Larry Bird), the Utah Jazz, Detroit Pistons, and Portland Trailblazers.

After his NBA career, Jeff was an assistant coach for 10 years for the University of Utah under Rick Majerus. Recruiting players like Keith Van Horn, Andre Miller, Michael Doleac, and Alex Jensen.

The Utes made it to the NCAA Championship during his tenure.

In 2001, Jeff became the head coach of the BYU Women's Basketball Team. Over the next 21 seasons, Coach Judkins' teams would have 20 winning seasons. They would win the conference championship 5 times, make the NCAA tournament 11 times, and go to the Sweet 16 twice.

He would win the conference's Coach of the Year 6 times, including his final season as head coach.

Jeff is the all-time winningest basketball coach in BYU history with 456 wins. He is the 2nd all-time winningest coach of any sport in BYU history.

He is a legend and we are grateful he was willing to spend so much time with us.

Is the basketball you're using affecting your shot? We measured 8 different basketballs to see whether or not the ball you're using in your pickup games is affecting your performance. If you're used to shooting with a particular basketball, and then play in a game that uses a different ball, your shooting percentages could suffer. We initially thought it was just a feel and familiarity problem. We learned that different basketballs actually have different weights, which will definitely impact your shooting performance.⚠️ Basketball Giveaway Instructions ⚠️1.
