Jared Scott Carter Jeffries (born November 25 1981, in Bloomington, Indiana) is an American professional basketball player for the New York Knicks of the NBA. He was drafted in 2002 by the Washington Wizards as the 11th overall pick. At 6'11", he plays at the small forward position, although he was known to play the starting shooting guard position on many occasions with the Wizards.
Jeffries is a versatile player, able to do many things on the court including rebounding, ball-handling, and scoring. He is most well-known for his defense, however, as the Wizards often gave him the toughest defensive assignments. As an example, in the 2006 NBA Playoffs, he guarded LeBron James, star of the Cleveland Cavaliers, for most of their first-round series.
