A familiar face will have a new role on the Charlotte Hornets’ television broadcasts this season.
George Lynch, who spent time with the Hornets after staring at North Carolina, is joining Bally Sports Southeast as a studio analyst. Lynch will be alongside returning host Ashley ShahAmadi and is expected to make his debut during the Hornets’ regular-season home opener against New Orleans on Oct. 21.
The 52-year-old rounds out the network’s crew, which includes play-by-play voice Eric Collins and color analyst Dell Curry. The duo is returning for its eighth season together.
Lynch spent the past two years as the head coach of Clark Atlanta University’s men’s basketball team.
