Prime Video is entering the NBA broadcasting space with authority, unveiling a deep and accomplished roster of play-by-play voices, analysts, and sideline reporters for its inaugural season of NBA on Prime coverage.
Headlining the broadcast team are veteran play-by-play announcers Ian Eagle, Kevin Harlan, Michael Grady, and Eric Collins. They’ll be joined by a wide-ranging group of analysts including Hall of Famers Steve Nash and Dwyane Wade, WNBA icon Candace Parker, longtime coach and commentator Stan Van Gundy, as well as former NBA standouts Brent Barry and Dell Curry.
On the sidelines, the team will include experienced reporters Cassidy Hubbarth, Allie Clifton, and Kristina Pink.
Eagle, widely respected for his versatility and storytelling, brings over three decades of NBA experience. He has served as the voice of the Brooklyn Nets and worked national NBA and NCAA Tournament broadcasts for TNT and CBS, respectively. Eagle, who became the lead voice of the Men’s Final Four in 2024, said he’s eager to help build something fresh at Prime Video.
“To be a part of building something from the ground up is truly special,” Eagle said. “Prime Video has put together an extraordinary group.”
Harlan, another legendary voice, echoed Eagle’s enthusiasm. With nearly 50 years in the business, Harlan’s resume includes NBA on TNT, the NFL on CBS, and a historic stint as the original play-by-play voice of the Minnesota Timberwolves.
“I am honored and grateful for the opportunity to be part of something so special,” said Harlan.
Grady and Collins round out the play-by-play rotation. Grady has worked NBA and WNBA games for ESPN and YES Network, while Collins brings his signature enthusiasm from Charlotte Hornets broadcasts and stints with FOX Sports and ESPN.
Prime Video’s analyst bench is equally formidable. Van Gundy, who’s worked for both TNT and CBS Sports, adds a coaching pedigree that spans four NBA franchises. Barry, a two-time NBA champion and longtime executive with the Spurs, most recently served as an assistant coach with the Phoenix Suns. Curry, the Charlotte Hornets’ all-time leading scorer, continues his post-playing career in broadcasting after more than a decade behind the mic.
On the sidelines, Hubbarth brings years of experience from ESPN, Clifton adds versatility from her time with Spectrum SportsNet and podcasting with NBA veterans, and Pink contributes NFL and Clippers coverage experience from FOX Sports.
“This is a group that truly loves the NBA,” said Jared Stacy, Prime Video’s Global Head of Production. “We’re excited to watch them share their passion and insights with fans starting this fall.”
Prime Video’s exclusive NBA coverage begins Friday, October 24, with an opening week doubleheader. Additional production details will be announced in the coming months. The NBA signed its 11-year media rights deal with Disney, NBC and Amazon Prime Video in July of last years after saying it was not accepting Warner Bros. Discovery’s $1.8 billion per year offer to continue its longtime relationship with the league.
