Youngest Player Turned GM? Next Reality TV Star? Jared Jeffries Is Making Moves

Quite the “catch”

Jeffries’ new position with the Nuggets could come with an added bonus.

This past summer, Jeffries, arguably the biggest fisherman in the NBA, filmed his deep-sea adventures in Panama, Cape Cod, Puerto Rico, Vanuatu in the South Pacific and where he lives in Tampa. All of his fishing was recorded for a future reality television show, which is currently in negotiations for a deal that would mark its debut in January 2014 with the Outdoor Channel or World Fishing Network.

As it turns out, the World Fishing Network is connected to the Nuggets. In 2011, Altitude Sports and Entertainment, a subsidiary of Kroenke Sports Enterprises that owns the Nuggets, acquired a 50 percent interest in WFN.

Not only does Jeffries have a business “in” with the organization, he also has the support of another avid fisherman on the team.

“(Nuggets coach) Brian Shaw is a very passionate fisherman, so those two have a lot in common,” Connelly said. “Our organization owns the (World) Fishing Network, so I think Jared is going to have some cross-promotional chances.”

Jeffries first fell in love with the sport through his father Tom while growing up in Bloomington, Ind. With his own rods, reels, satellite phone and regular boat captain, Josh Temple, Jeffries has traveled around the world to fish—sometimes spending hundreds of miles off shore living on a boat for weeks at a time.
