Ben Falk, former NBA analytics guru, takes over Barrack Hebrew's basketball team

He was part of the Sixers organization and had a hand in “The Process” that led to the team’s 52-30 regular-season mark and second-round appearance in the NBA playoffs this season.

Now, two years removed from being the club’s vice president of strategy, Ben Falk has taken over as the head boys’ basketball coach at Jack M. Barrack Hebrew Academy. The co-educational school in Bryn Mawr has an enrollment of about 400 students in grades six through 12.

The 30-year-old, who was a volunteer assistant with the Cougars in 2016-17, is thrilled about his new position.

“At Barrack, you get to focus on teaching kids that love the sport of basketball,” Falk said.
