Brevin Knight joins Grizzlies broadcasting team
Former Memphis Grizzlies point guard Brevin Knight will join the team’s television broadcasting team as color commentator during the 2010-11 season.
Knight will split time with current analyst Sean Tuouhy during games. Play-by-play broadcaster Pete Pranica will be back for his fifth season with the team.
The Grizzlies will have their largest number of regional television broadcasts during the upcoming season with 73 being shown on SportSouth.
The Grizzlies’ Nov. 26 game against the Golden State Warriors will be broadcast on ESPN2, while the annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day game will be broadcast for the first time on ESPN. It has previously been shown on TNT.
The regular season finale against the Los Angeles Clippers will also be broadcast on ESPN on April 13. Both games against the New York Knicks on March 9 and 17 will be shown on NBATV. The six scheduled nationally televised games are the most the team has had since the 2005-06 season.
All 41 road games will be televised.
Knight was with the Grizzlies from two seasons from 2001-2003. Drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers in 1997, Knight was traded to the Grizzlies along with Lorenzen Wright and the draft rights for Pau Gasol for Shareef Abdur-Rahim and the draft rights to Jamaal Tinsley in 2001.
He was traded by the Grizzlies (along with Robert Archibald and Cezary Trybanski) to the Phoenix Suns for Bo Outlaw and Jake Tsakalidis in 2003.
