Former Knicks guard Jamal Crawford is poised to take on the role of game analyst for approximately 10 games this season on MSG Network, according to sources cited by Andrew Marchand of The Athletic.
Crawford, who showcased his analytical skills while working with TNT last season, will not be returning to that network this year.
This shift comes at a time when TNT faces uncertainty regarding its NBA media rights, which may be impacted in the 2025/26 season as a result of an ongoing lawsuit against the league.
Crawford’s experience as a former player, combined with his deep understanding of the game, makes him an exciting addition to the MSG broadcast team.
His insightful commentary and ability to break down plays will surely enhance the viewing experience for fans.
In addition to his role with MSG, Crawford has drawn interest from various networks, including Amazon, NBC, and ESPN, indicating his versatility and appeal as a basketball analyst.
As he embarks on this new chapter, Crawford aims to provide fans with a unique perspective on the game, blending his extensive playing career with fresh insights and analysis.
This season presents an exciting opportunity for him to engage with audiences and share his love for the sport, all while remaining connected to the Knicks, the team that helped elevate his career.
