Reggie Miller will be NBC’s No. 1 game analyst when the network starts its 11-year deal to broadcast NBA games next season, sources briefed on the move said Wednesday.
NBC declined to comment. Front Office Sports was first to report news of Miller’s deal with NBC.
Last month, The Athletic reported NBC was in talks with Miller to add him to its broadcast team. He will be paired with the network’s No. 1 and 2 football game callers, Mike Tirico and Noah Eagle, per the sources.
NBC recently hired game analyst Jamal Crawford to join its NBA coverage.
NBC/Peacock will begin its 11-year, nearly $27 billion deal with the NBA next season and will likely need at least four broadcast teams. Beginning next year, Peacock will have exclusive games each Monday. On Tuesdays, NBC will have national games, but will be regionally divided with two games.
The network will have extended playoff coverage, sharing the postseason with ABC/ESPN and Amazon Prime Video. In six of the 11 seasons, NBC will air one of the conference finals.
Miller, 59, played 18 seasons in the NBA — all with the Indiana Pacers — and earned five All-Star selections. Following his playing career, he entered broadcasting and has worked with TNT since 2005. He was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in 2012.
