Prime Video’s exclusive live coverage of the 2026 NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs tips off on June 4th at 1:30am in the UK and Ireland. Prime Video has revealed the on-air broadcast team who will deliver studio analysis and play-by-play game coverage of the series, which concludes Prime Video’s inaugural season of global NBA coverage.
Prime Video’s studio team will deliver English language coverage from the NBA on Prime studio in Culver City, Los Angeles throughout the 2026 NBA Finals. A rotating cast of studio analysts across the series includes Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Famers Vlade Divac and Chris Bosh. Two of Europe’s generational talents, former Italian NBA star Danilo Gallinari and current Los Angeles Clippers guard Nicolas Batum, also join the team. Allie Clifton will host the studio coverage, and NBA on Prime sideline reporter Kristina Pink returns for the 2026 NBA Finals coverage, capturing all the action, interviews, and stories from courtside.
Play-by-play game coverage of the 2026 NBA Finals in the UK and Ireland will be delivered by a commentary team of Todd Harris, Mo Mooncey, Liam Canny, Azania Stewart, Nick Halling, Drew Lasker, Darren Kilfara and Rob Paternostro.
The New York Knicks are returning to the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999, and in a dramatic rematch of that series they will face the San Antonio Spurs. Whilst the Spurs won the NBA Finals in 1999, the series is also a rematch of this season’s NBA Cup Championship Game, which was broadcast live on Prime Video and saw the Knicks triumph. The Spurs’ Game 7 victory in the Western Conference Finals, powered by French superstar Victor Wembanyama, means this will be the eighth different franchise to win the NBA Championship in the last eight seasons, extending the longest stretch in NBA history.
