NBC Sports is adding another familiar face to its NBA coverage. On Tuesday, the network announced that Hall of Famer Grant Hill will join as a game analyst when the NBA returns to NBC and Peacock for the 2025-26 season.
The seven-time NBA All-Star will cover regular-season and playoff games. He played 18 years in the league with the Detroit Pistons, Orlando Magic, Phoenix Suns, and the Los Angeles Clippers and earned five All-NBA selections. Moreover, he brings over a decade of broadcasting experience and is famous for his college basketball work with CBS and Turner during the NCAA tournament. NBC confirmed that he would continue his college duties while working on NBA coverage.

“I’m incredibly excited to join NBC Sports as part of their NBA coverage”, Hill said. “The NBA has been such a meaningful part of my life, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to continue sharing the game I love with fans across the country.”
With Hill on board, NBC adds even more credibility to a growing team that already features Vince Carter, Carmelo Anthony, Jamal Crawford, and Reggie Miller. The network will launch its new NBA Coverage in October and make its return to the league under a new 11-year media deal.
