At McQuaid Jesuit High School in Rochester, New York, Van Gundy began his basketball coaching career. The following year, he became a graduate assistant at Providence College, helping the Providence Friars advance to the Final Four. In his second season with the Providence Friars, he was promoted to assistant coach and the next year joined Rutgers as an assitant coach.

On July 28, 1989, Jeff Van Gundy became assistant coach for the New York Knicks. The next six-and-a-half seasons would be spent providing support to Stu Jackson (1989-1990), John MacLeod (1990-1991) , Pat Riley (1991-1995) and Don Nelson (1995-1996).
