U.S. Navy SEALS trainer named head of Brooklyn Nets "performance team"
Brooklyn NetsIf you're looking for more evidence of unconventional, out-of-the-box thinking from the Nets new front office, here it is: the Nets have named the Navy SEALS Human Performance Manager as their director of player performance, a new role. Zach Weatherford has served the Naval Special Warfare Command, which is the overarching headquarters for all Navy special operations, including the SEALs.
Although not a Navy SEAL, Weatheford was in charge of improving the performance of the Navy's top-secret special ops teams.
