After 14 years in the NBA, Stephen Jackson has gone from the hardwood to a role as a basketball analyst on ESPN’s The Jump with Rachel Nichols. Jackson is a frequent guest on the show along with other former NBA players, Tracy McGrady and Chauncey Billups, along with some of ESPN’s best and brightest like Ramona Shelburne, Zach Lowe, and Brian Windhorst.
With The Jump now moving forward with no summer hiatus on ESPN at 12 p.m. PT on weekdays, Jackson agreed to an interview with Lakers Nation to discuss the show as well as many other topics.
