The NBA on Prime Video already boasts the likes of Blake Griffin, Dirk Nowitzki, Udonis Haslem, Candace Parker, Steve Nash, and host Taylor Rooks in the studio. And it sounds like Kyle Lowry might be joining them soon. Griffin casually dropped the news on a recent Pardon My Take appearance. “Kyle Lowry is going to be our — actually, I don’t know if that one’s been announced,” Griffin said. “Damnit. He’s a player correspondent, maybe. Maybe in some capacity. I don’t know. We’ve been talking about it.”

More on this storyline
What does your day-to-day look like now that you’re not in the NBA? Blake Griffin: I still try to work out. It’s not quite as much as I used to but I still try to stay active. I have a production company that I started years ago. I go into the office there. I’m all over the place. I am looking forward to doing the Amazon stuff and have a set routine. We’ll start out on Fridays and then go to Thursdays when Thursday Night Football ends. I’m excited to have that structure and be around basketball and be able to talk about the one thing I truly love. -via USA Today / May 27, 2025
How do you imagine that show is going to look once it actually begins? Blake Griffin: I like building this show with Dirk Nowitzki, Candace Parker and Taylor Rooks. The former players are all relatively new to retirement. We all played in the last few years. Dirk has a great sense of humor. He’ll be great. The whole crew is great. We have a group chat that we text all of the time. We’re trying to start that chemistry and get it going. I’m looking forward to being up there with everybody. We want to give insight. We want to give actual analysis for pre-game, halftime and post-game. But we also want to keep it really light. We want to highlight some of the lesser-known storylines around the NBA. When you turn on ESPN, you just see the Lakers and the Celtics and the Warriors and the Knicks. We want to highlight someone like Donovan Mitchell, who had an unbelievable year in Cleveland. -via USA Today / May 27, 2025
As a former No. 1 overall pick, what advice would you give to Cooper Flagg? Blake Griffin: Just enjoy it. It sounds sort of cliché, but it all goes by so quickly. You’ll only experience this draft process one time. Soak it in and don’t get too weighed down with all the other stuff. All the people around you will take care of all that. Just enjoy every single moment. Remember, this is just the beginning. As a young guy, you want everything right away. You want to get to everything. But your career is a marathon. Enjoy it. Appreciate all the hard work you’ve done to get to this point. Know that it continues. -via USA Today / May 27, 2025
