NEW YORK – September 30, 2014 – SiriusXM will launch its inaugural SiriusXM NBA Radio Training Camp Tour tomorrow, October 1, and will visit a dozen NBA team pre-season training camps leading up to the 2014-15 season, giving fans the most in-depth NBA preview available on radio.
Starting with the NBA Champion San Antonio Spurs, SiriusXM NBA Radio hosts will visit training camp sites to interview players, coaches and franchise executives, and get an inside look at the team as they prepare for the coming season. In the days following the visit, the hosts will dedicate a regularly scheduled SiriusXM NBA Radio show to previewing a specific team, and will present an expert breakdown on everything they learned from that team’s camp. Listeners will hear one-on-one interviews as well as the hosts’ evaluations, and will also be invited to call in to the program and participate in the discussion about their favorite teams and players.
Each team preview show will air nationwide on SiriusXM NBA Radio (XM channel 86, Sirius channel 207), which is available on satellite radios, on the SiriusXM Internet Radio App and at SiriusXM.com. A schedule with airtimes and hosts appears below and at www.SiriusXM.com/NBA.
In addition to the Spurs, featured teams on the tour will include the Boston Celtics, Brooklyn Nets, Charlotte Hornets, Cleveland Cavaliers, Golden State Warriors, Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Clippers, Oklahoma City Thunder, Phoenix Suns, Portland Trail Blazers and Toronto Raptors.
SiriusXM NBA Radio hosts on the tour will include former players and coaches including Antonio Davis, Mike Dunleavy Sr., Eddie Johnson, Malik Rose, Jerry Stackhouse and Mateen Cleaves, as well as Frank Isola and Justin Termine.
“The SiriusXM NBA Radio Training Camp Tour will showcase the extraordinary depth of NBA coverage that SiriusXM offers our subscribers,” said Steve Cohen, SiriusXM’s SVP of Sports Programming. “We have a remarkable roster of expert hosts who will take our listeners inside these training camps and deliver the kind of well-informed perspective on the league and its teams that you won’t find anywhere else on radio.”
