Turner Network Television (TNT) announced today that New York Knicks
guard/forward Jalen Rose will join the TNT NBA announcing stable as a

interviews and behind the scenes aspects of the NBA Playoffs.

Rose brings a wealth of experience to the announcing team having played

for TNT and served as a special NBA correspondent on Fox Sports’ Best

"Jalen is highly respected on and off the court, and we’re confident he
will add insight and enthusiasm to our broadcast team," said Jeff
Behnke, Turner Sports Executive Producer. "As we look forward to
another year of the NBA Playoffs, our announcers will continue to offer
compelling commentary and deliver story lines that are essential to
providing quality coverage to our viewers."

"I’m excited and appreciate the opportunity to be a part of TNT’s
Emmy-award winning basketball programming, which I feel is the best in
sports," said Rose. "I look forward to providing the fans with a
player’s perspective and take them behind the scenes in the Playoffs
from the court to the popcorn vendor."

TNT’s announcer line-up for the Playoffs includes Marv Albert
(play-by-play) and Steve Kerr (analyst), Kevin Harlan (play-by-play)
and Doug Collins (analyst), Dick Stockton (play-by-play) and Reggie
Miller (analyst), and Matt Devlin and an analyst to be announced. On

down the Playoff action during Inside the NBA presented by Hyundai.

Bobcats sideline reporter and former assistant coach for the WNBA’s
Washington Mystics and the NBA Development League’s Greenville Groove,
as well as Eamon McAnaney, who recently has worked on NBA-TV. Rose,
