After months of speculation about a possible retirement from television, Charles Barkley has reversed course as the 2022-23 NBA season tips off.
After months of speculation about a possible retirement from television, Charles Barkley has reversed course and won’t be leaving TNT or the “Inside the NBA” crew for the foreseeable future.
Barkley’s agreement coincides with contract renewals for fellow “Inside the NBA” crew members Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith and Shaquille O’Neal, although contract figures for those individuals are not currently known. “Inside the NBA” begins its 34th season on Tuesday as the 2022-23 NBA season tips off. Johnson has been with the show since the beginning while Smith became a studio analyst in 1998. O’Neal joined them in 2011.“I don’t want to die on TV. I want to die on the golf course or somewhere fishing,” he told the Dallas Morning News earlier this year.
Barkley is widely considered one of the most popular studio analysts of all time, and has won four Sports Emmy Awards for “Outstanding Studio Analyst” for his work on TNT.The deals with Barkley, Johnson, Smith and O’Neal last well beyond the end of Turner’s current deal to broadcast NBA games through 2024-25. The league is expected to begin rights negotiations soon. Turner has been carrying games since 1984 while ESPN/ABC replaced NBC in 2002.
