Mark Jones of ESPN was officially named Friday as the Sacramento Kings’ new play-by-play announcer, per a release from the team. Jones is one of the best national announcers for the NBA and college football, so this is quite the coup for the franchise.
The Sacramento play-by-play role was most recently occupied by Gary Gerould during the NBA restart. Gerold was a short-term replacement for Grant Napear, but the Kings finally have their new permanent announcer.
Welcome to the @SacramentoKings crew, Mark!
