A legendary broadcaster is set to call his final NBA game.
Hubie Brown, 91, will work alongside Mike Breen when the Milwaukee Bucks host the Philadelphia 76ers at 2 p.m. on Feb. 9, 2025. The game will air on ABC.
The Hall of Fame duo previously called the 2006 NBA Finals together for ABC. Brown later worked alongside Mike Tirico, Mark Jones and Dave Pasch on ABC and ESPN.
The two-time NBA Coach of the Year began his professional coaching career as the assistant coach for the Milwaukee Bucks in 1972. He served as head coach of the Hawks (1976-1981), Knicks (1982-1987) and Grizzlies (2002-2004).
During the broadcast, ESPN and the NBA will honor and celebrate Brown’s history-making career, which includes 50 years in the NBA and 35 years as a national television and radio analyst.
More details about the special broadcast will be announced in the coming weeks, ESPN said.
Brown has been a cornerstone of ESPN’s NBA coverage since joining the network in 2004.
He has been inducted to the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, the College Basketball Hall of Fame, the National Sports Media Hall of Fame and the Sports Broadcasting Hall of Fame.
