After 13 seasons broadcasting minor league baseball — including two as the play-by-play voice of the Worcester Red Sox — Tyler Murray made the long-awaited transition to hoops, becoming the play-by-play voice of his beloved New York Knicks. It wasn’t always easy for the BU graduate who rooted for New York teams while growing up in Massachusetts. But Murray persevered until he was discovered by the Knicks, who gave him his dream job. He is best known to Celtics fans for two viral calls during the Knicks’ 2025 playoff upset.
