In addition to Van Gundy, Redick credits Doc Rivers and Brett Brown as integral figures in his growth as a professional. Rivers, known for his leadership and ability to get the best out of his players, helped Redick find his voice as a leader on the court. “Doc was obviously one of the best,” Redick reflects. “He made me understand the value of being a team player and knowing how to perform under pressure.” Brett Brown, meanwhile, helped Redick transition into the later years of his career with the Philadelphia 76ers. “Brett was wonderful as well,” says Redick. “He gave me the freedom to be myself while also pushing me to grow. Each of these guys taught me something different, and I carry their lessons with me every day.”
