Amazon Prime Video Assembles Star-Studded NBA Coverage Team

Amazon Prime Video is making significant strides in the sports broadcasting arena by securing a diverse team of analysts and commentators for its NBA coverage. The addition of Dwyane Wade, Candace Parker, and Stan Van Gundy brings a wealth of experience and perspectives to the broadcasts.

Wade, known for his role as NBC's top color commentator for men's Olympics basketball in Paris, will serve as a hybrid game and studio analyst. Parker, a longtime studio analyst for the NBA on TNT, will cover both NBA and WNBA games. Van Gundy, a staple on NBA coverage for ESPN and TNT, will join Ian Eagle on Prime Video's game telecasts.

This move comes as the NBA begins its new 11-year, $76 billion arrangements with ABC/ESPN, NBC/Peacock, and Amazon Prime Video. Amazon's strategic hiring suggests a focus on attracting a broad audience and delivering insightful analysis.

Dwyane Wade, Candace Parker, and Steve Nash are among the prominent analysts expected to join Amazon's NBA coverage team.

Ian Eagle is designated as the No. 1 play-by-play announcer, with potential additions like Kevin Harlan and Michael Grady.

Taylor Rooks will be the lead studio host, and Blake Griffin and Dirk Nowitzki are already signed as pregame and postgame analysts.
