Dirk Nowitzki Poised to Join Amazon as NBA Analyst

The retired basketball legend is reportedly in talks to become a TV expert for Amazon Prime Video’s NBA coverage starting next season.

  • Dirk Nowitzki, former Dallas Mavericks star and 2011 NBA champion, is reportedly set to become an NBA analyst for Amazon Prime Video.
  • The 46-year-old retired in 2019 after a 21-season career and has since taken on roles such as FIBA ambassador at major basketball events.
  • Amazon recently acquired significant NBA broadcasting rights, including coverage of the NBA Cup and select Conference Finals games from 2025-2036.
  • Reports suggest only final details remain to be resolved before Nowitzki's role is confirmed, though no official announcement has been made yet.
  • The NBA's new $76 billion broadcasting deal also involves Disney (ABC and ESPN) as the primary partner, alongside NBCUniversal and Amazon.
