Soon after coming to NBC Sports Boston in 2013, Abby Chin emerged as a popular personality among Celtics fans as the sideline reporter on game broadcasts.
She also spent the 2020-21 season as the network’s Celtics studio host. That was after returning to NBC Sports Boston in December 2020 following a brief and unwarranted four-month absence after she’d been laid off in wide-ranging cuts by parent company NBC Universal.
On Monday, as part of the network’s all-female broadcast team for the Celtics-Pistons matchup in commemoration of Women’s History Month, Chin will take a turn in an unfamiliar role as the color analyst.
