Prime Video has officially announced its on-air broadcast team for the 2026 NBA Finals, bringing together championship-winning stars, Hall of Famers, and experienced broadcasters for its exclusive live coverage in the Philippines.

The highly anticipated championship series between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs marks the conclusion of Prime Video’s inaugural season of global NBA coverage.

Prime Video’s studio coverage will originate from its state-of-the-art NBA on Prime studio in Culver City, Los Angeles, delivering expert analysis, insights, and commentary throughout the Finals.

Leading the roster of analysts are Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Famers Chris Bosh and Vlade Divac. Joining them are former Italian NBA standout Danilo Gallinari and current Los Angeles Clippers veteran Nicolas Batum, bringing both international and active-player perspectives to the broadcast.

Bosh, an 11-time NBA All-Star and two-time NBA champion with the Miami Heat, adds championship experience to the coverage. Batum, a four-time Olympic representative for France, offers current player insights after nearly two decades in the NBA.

Gallinari, recognized as the highest-scoring Italian player in NBA history, brings a blend of playing and broadcasting experience. Divac contributes his expertise as both a former NBA star and former Sacramento Kings executive.

Veteran broadcaster Allie Clifton will host the studio coverage, while courtside reporter Kristina Pink returns to provide live interviews, breaking developments, and behind-the-scenes stories throughout the series.

Knicks and Spurs Renew a Historic Rivalry

The 2026 NBA Finals feature a compelling storyline as the New York Knicks return to the championship stage for the first time since 1999.

Standing in their way are the San Antonio Spurs, the same franchise that defeated New York during the 1999 NBA Finals. The matchup also serves as a rematch of this season’s NBA Cup Championship Game, where the Knicks emerged victorious.

The Spurs enter the Finals after a dramatic Game 7 victory in the Western Conference Finals, led by French superstar Victor Wembanyama. The championship series also guarantees an eighth different NBA champion in the last eight seasons, extending the league’s longest stretch of parity.
