The Suns will keep their same TV broadcast crew with Kevin Ray (seventh season) as the play-by-play announcer. Former Suns’ player Eddie Johnson (24th season) and basketball Hall of Famer Ann Meyers Drysdale (12th season) will serve as analysts.
Suns’ Ring of Honor member Tom Chambers (25th season) and Tom Leander (30th season) will once again host the pregame and postgame shows. Phoenix Mercury forward Sophie Cunningham will also return to occasionally join the shows.
Jon Bloom, who began his tenure with the Suns as a radio host and backup play-by-play announcer in 2008, will take over Al McCoy’s spot as the play-by-play announcer for radio. This will be the first time in 52 seasons that McCoy is not the radio voice of the Suns. Former Suns’ player Tim Kempton (22nd season) returns as the radio analyst.
“KSUN La Mejor Radio on 1400AM and 106.5FM will return as the Spanish radio broadcast partner of the Phoenix Suns. Veteran play-by-play announcer Arturo Ochoa returns for his 20th season calling games, alongside analyst Samuel Sandoval who enters his second season.”
