Amazon signed Griffin and Nowitzki to join host Taylor Rooks when the platform begins its NBA package later this calendar year. Amazon will start its 11-year, nearly $20 billion agreement with the NBA during the 2025-26 season. The Athletic ’s Richard Deitsch previously reported that Rooks would be the host.

While Prime Video’s first season as a NBA broadcaster won’t be until this fall, parent company Amazon is already making some notable hires for that coverage. As per previous reports, they’ve already added Ian Eagle as their lead play-by-play voice for those games and Taylor Rooks as their studio host.
