Koncak received a six-year, $13 million contract from the Hawks in 1989 – an unprecedented total for a reserve. Since he was a restricted free agent at the time, the Atlanta Hawks matched this offer from the Detroit Pistons. As a result, he earned the derisive nickname "Jon Contract".[1][2]
On February 23, 2008 SMU retired Koncak's jersey.[3] Koncak is an Eagle Scout.[2]
Koncak also won a gold medal at the 1984 Summer Olympics as a part of the United States men's basketball team.
