Amazon Prime Video has signed Kevin Harlan to call NBA games in the 2025-26 season, The Athletic reported Thursday.
The streamer, which is part of the new 11-year, $76 billion NBA rights deal that takes effect this fall, also hired Brent Barry and Dell Curry as analysts, per The Athletic and Front Office Sports, respectively.
Harlan called games for Turner Sports for 30 seasons -- 1996 to 2025 -- before Turner lost its rights. He will continue as a top voice for CBS calling NFL games.
Harlan's move to Amazon Prime Video has been rumored for months, and he addressed the topic in February on 'The Sports Media Podcast.'
'With TNT losing the rights, and it's very sad there, it clearly has made a sea change for most of us and navigating that is always a challenge,' Harlan said. 'I am in my 60s and to have someone with a bright new shiny opportunity for someone at my stage of this career, which is dominated by younger broadcasters and incredibly talented people, to have them want me to join their roster is humbling and incredibly gratifying.'
Barry, who played 14 years in the NBA, also has worked as a broadcaster as well as stints in the front office of the San Antonio Spurs and as an assistant coach with the Phoenix Suns.
Curry, the father of NBA players Stephen Curry and Seth Curry, played 16 NBA seasons with five franchises. He works as a color commentator for the Charlotte Hornets.
Harlan joins play-by-play announcers Ian Eagle and Michael Grady in the Amazon fold. It already has hired numerous analysts, including Steve Nash, Stan Van Gundy, Candace Parker and Blake Griffin.
