Jeff Van Gundy came to the rescue when it comes to helping out some of America’s stars.
Right now, the US Women’s National Soccer team is red hot and it’s only going to get better. When star Meghan Klingenberg needed a place to stay while playing for the Houston Dash, Van Gundy stepped up to the plate and helped out this soccer star.
Yes, the same Meghan Klingenberg who has played every minute on the United States national team’s back line this World Cup has “Pancake Sundays” with the Van Gundy family in Houston because she lives with them while playing for the Houston Dash in the National Women’s Soccer League.
When Van Gundy learned of the team’s host-family program last year, he jumped on the opportunity knowing little about soccer. The former NBA coach and current ESPN analyst didn’t realize his family received an “absolute blessing.”
Morgan Brian has also moved in. This household just reeks of sports and we absolutely love it. Both soccer stars are practically members of the family and have helped out when it comes to setting up Apple TV.
“They’re more tech sound so they can actually get the Apple TV up on the screen, which I’ve never been able to accomplish,” Van Gundy said. “They’ll go up to their rooms some, but they’re pretty invested. They hang out.”
Van Gundy just gained more points in our book for this act of kindness.
