Jamal Crawford is set to join the MSG Network as a game analyst for approximately 10 New York Knicks games this season, filling in for the legendary Walt 'Clyde' Frazier, who remains the primary color commentator. Crawford, a former Knicks player and three-time Sixth Man of the Year, has gained acclaim for his broadcasting skills, but will not return to TNT Sports this season, as they transition out of NBA coverage. The Knicks previously considered Mark Jackson for a similar role, but team president Leon Rose denied him due to past disputes. Crawford is also a sought-after free agent, with interest from major networks including Amazon, NBC, and ESPN, although only ESPN could assign him to a role this season. His return to the Knicks comes amid a significant shift in NBA broadcasting rights, with new contracts kicking in next year. Despite not being on ESPN's initial analyst slate, it is anticipated that Crawford will secure a national job soon.
