ESPN announced today that ever steady play by play guy Mike Breen will be joined by Doris Burke and Doc Rivers on the broadcaster’s A-team for big games. The team will make its debut during ESPN’s opening week of NBA coverage in October
As part of the changes, ESPN announced it has reached a multi-year deal with Rivers as well as a multi-year extension with Burke.
The arrangement will make the incomparable Burke the first woman to serve as a television analyst for a major men’s championship in the U.S. sideline reporter for nine years. Burke has spoken about the changes happening in the announcers booth, saying she’s been around long enough to normalize the idea of a woman calling men’s games.
“It gives me like, just joy that guys of my son’s generation, they don’t even think about it. It’s like, ‘Yeah, she does what she does.'” ESPN has officially named Doris Burke to its lead NBA broadcast team, joining Mike Breen and Doc Rivers.
