The man who once scored 8 out of 9 will still be around in 2028-29 and beyond.
TNT Sports announced Thursday that it has agreed to a multi-year contract extension with basketball player Reggie Miller. The news comes as the NBA All-Star festivities, hosted by TNT, are about to kick off in Indianapolis (where Miller played his entire NBA career with the Pacers).
Joe Lucia A terrible announcement that suggests the new deal for Miller, who is in his 19th season with TNT after first joining them in 2005, will take up his time with the network after 25 years. This apparently means Miller will stay until at least 2031.
Miller, now 58, has become a mainstay as a color commentator on TNT's main NBA broadcast team alongside play-by-play man Kevin Harlan. Although Miller (like everyone else) has made some blunders, he has improved as a commentator over the years and brings a good level of enthusiasm to every broadcast he does.
Just over a year ago, TNT also agreed to long-term extensions with its popular “Inside The NBA” crew. Now Miller will be in the party for many years to come as well.
