So you think being the sideline television reporter for the NBA champs is all glamor all the time? Then you haven’t seen the dank little “hidey hole” in which Kerith Burke hangs out during Warriors games at Oracle Arena.

When she’s not delivering on-air reports or interviewing players, Burke, who is in her rookie season with NBC Sports Bay Area, spends plenty of time hunkered down just beyond the baseline and below the stands. Envision the cupboard Harry Potter occupied under the stairs in the Dursleys’ home and you get the general idea: It’s a dark and cramped space where she can only see the game on a 14-inch monitor perched on a fold-out table.
