Amazon Prime Video is hiring Steve Nash and Stan Van Gundy as part of NBA coverage team for the 2025\/26 season, according to reports.<\/p>\n
Longtime NBA insider Marc Stein has the scoop on Nash, writing (via Substack<\/a>) that the two-time MVP will be part of Amazon\u2019s NBA studio and game coverage. Andrew Marchand of The Athletic<\/a> reports that Van Gundy will be joining Amazon as a game analyst.<\/p>\n Nash, a former NBA point guard and head coach, only recently forayed into the media space, joining LeBron James<\/a> as a co-host on the recently relaunched Mind The Game podcast<\/a>. Van Gundy, on the other hand, is a veteran broadcaster, having spent time with both ESPN and TNT as an NBA analyst. The former head coach of the Heat, Magic, Pistons, and Pelicans will be making the move to Amazon with TNT set to lose its broadcasting rights at the end of this season.<\/p>\n Amazon previously reached deals with former NBA stars Blake Griffin and Dirk Nowitzki, who will be part of the streamer\u2019s studio show hosted by Taylor Rooks, so it will be a reunion for former Mavericks teammates \u2013 and close friends \u2013 Nash and Nowitzki.<\/p>\n Ian Eagle is set to be Prime Video\u2019s top play-by-play announcer, though it remains unclear whether Van Gundy will join Eagle on that No. 1 team, Marchand writes.<\/p>\n According to Marchand, Amazon has also shown interest in ESPN\u2019s Richard Jefferson as an analyst, and has spoken to TNT\u2019s Kevin Harlan and Timberwolves broadcaster Michael Grady about possible play-by-play roles. Dwyane Wade is among Prime Video\u2019s other candidates for potential color commentator positions, Marchand adds.<\/p>\n
