S-F Radio: Chris Mullin Added To KNBR For Hoops

Chris Mullin
Cumulus Media announces that it has signed former Golden State Warriors Forward Chris Mullin as an On-Air Contributor on KNBR 104.5FM / 680AM for the 2019-2020 NBA Season.

Mullin, a three-time Olympic Gold Medalist and Pro Basketball Hall of Famer, was recently announced as a television pregame and postgame analyst for all 41 of Golden State’s regular-season home games at Chase Center this season.

Mullin, who spent 13 years of his 16-season NBA career as a member of the Golden State Warriors, was originally selected by the Warriors in the first round of the 1985 NBA Draft. Prior to re-joining the Warriors for his final NBA season in 2000, he spent three seasons with the Indiana Pacers. A five-time NBA All-Star, Mullin ended his 16-year NBA career with averages of 18.2 points and 4.1 rebounds in 986 games.

Jeremiah Crowe, Program Director, KNBR 104.5-FM, 680-AM & KNBR 1050-AM, said: “We are thrilled to welcome Chris into the KNBR family. Chris brings a unique perspective to both our Warriors coverage and overall NBA coverage, given his great success as a player, coach and executive. The addition of Chris further strengthens KNBR’s NBA contributor lineup as the strongest in radio across Northern California.” 

Mullin commented: “I’m looking forward to sharing insight and opinions throughout the upcoming Warriors season on KNBR, The Sports Leader. It’s very exciting to be able to talk basketball every week with my good friends Tom Tolbert and Greg Papa.”

In addition to Mullin, KNBR’s 2019-2020 NBA coverage also boasts weekday shows hosted by former Warriors Forward and current radio color analyst Tom Tolbert (Monday-Friday, 2pm-6pm), and by former Warriors radio voice and current television pregame and postgame host Greg Papa (Monday-Friday, 10am-2pm).

Golden State Warriors Head Coach and eight-time NBA Champion Steve Kerr can be heard on KNBR every Tuesday during a weekly afternoon drive interview on Tolbert, Krueger & Brooks. Rounding out KNBR’s NBA coverage is The Athletic Bay Area lead columnist and longtime Warriors beat writer Marcus Thompson II, who can be heard multiple times per week as a contributor on KNBR 104.5FM and 680AM throughout the 2019-2020 NBA season. Thompson authored the best-selling biography “GOLDEN: The Miraculous Rise of Steph Curry” in 2017.
