Jason Andre Caffey (born June 12 1973 in Mobile, Alabama) is a former professional basketball player who won two championship rings with the Chicago Bulls in the late 1990s.

A 6'8" power forward from the University of Alabama, Caffey was selected by the Bulls with the 20th pick of the 1995 NBA Draft. Bulls general manager Jerry Krause was criticized for the pick, since future-All-Star (and Chicago-area product) Michael Finley was also available, but Caffey was a productive role-player for the Bulls, averaging 7.3 points per game during the Bulls' second consecutive championship run in 1996-97. Before he could win a third championship ring with the Bulls, Caffey was traded to the Golden State Warriors in the middle of 1997-98, a then lowly team but which provided him with more playing time. He averaged career highs of 12.0 points and 6.8 rebounds during the 1999-00 season with the Warriors, then joined the Milwaukee Bucks in 2000, with whom he played three more seasons before his career fizzled out amidst a series of personal problems, including an anxiety attack in 2002 and an assault charge in 2003 .
