It’s likely that you’re not going to see Scottie Pippen sitting courtside for Chicago Bulls games for a while due to a new role.
The six-time NBA champion and 1994 MVP runner-up is apparently heading into the studio to join ESPN’s NBA coverage this season, according to a source that spoke with The Big Lead.
TBL stated that a formal announcement is in the works and that Pippen will be joining ESPN for this upcoming season.
Here’s TBL’s Ryan Glasspiegel with more on Pippen heading to ESPN:
Pippen, who won six titles as a player on the Chicago Bulls in the 1990s, is expected to be on air for about 50 dates during the upcoming NBA season, mostly on The Jump — the daily NBA show hosted by Rachel Nichols that debuted last season — and on SportsCenter.
