One of the voices synonymous with the NBA playoffs belongs to Kevin Harlan.
The TNT play-by-play man, who also does NFL and college basketball games for CBS, appeared on the latest episode of the SI Media Podcast and talked about how he got his big break in the business.
According to Harlan, it was iconic broadcaster Marv Albert, with the help of NFL Films guru Steve Sabol, who helped Harlan take his career to a new level when FOX had acquired the rights to air the NFL.
"Back in 1994, doing the Chiefs on local radio, [Albert] gave my name, unbeknownst to me, to the folks, Ed Goren and David Hill at FOX, who were just beginning their NFL ramp up," Harlan said on the podcast.
