Джефф МакИннис: Американдық баскетболшының мансабы

American basketball player

Jeff Lemans McInnis (born October 22, 1974) is an American former professional basketball player. He played in the National Basketball Association (NBA), in Greece and in the Continental Basketball Association (CBA).

After his junior year playing for the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, McInnis was chosen by the Denver Nuggets in the second round of the 1996 NBA draft. He played three seasons for the Quad City Thunder of the Continental Basketball Association (CBA) from 1997 to 2000. He was selected as the CBA Newcomer of the Year and named to the All CBA Second Team and All Defensive Team in 1998. Ahead of his return for the 2006 playoffs, the Nets kept McInnis inactive. The team's attempts to negotiate a contract buyout or a trade before the new season were unsuccessful, leaving McInnis in limbo, on the roster but exiled, early in the 2006–07 season. On January 3, 2007, the Charlotte Bobcats received McInnis from the Nets in trade for Bernard Robinson and cash considerations. McInnis, who would play 38 games for Charlotte, averaging 4.3 points and 3.3 assists per game, was waived by the Bobcats on February 29, 2008.

In 2009, McInnis founded the AAU organization Team Charlotte. In 2015, he won 17U National Coach of the Year honors. In 2019, he became national head basketball coach at Combine Academy in Lincolnton, North Carolina. His stint there ended in 2022. In April of 2024 Chris Mack hired McInnis as an assistant coach for the Charleston Cougars, his first collegiate coaching position.
