NBA reporter Nick Freidell among those cut.

He was actually doing the rounds on the morning shows today too. That's cold. Like if you're gonna fire me, don't let me do a full day's work and then kick me out the door

He'll resurface with another network

There's a very high likelihood that the NBA will be splitting up its media rights when they sign the new contract next year between 3 networks (TNT, ESPN/ABC, and someone else). I'll bet a fat stack he ends up at NBC, Apple, or Amazon (whoever wins the bid)

At the least, they should cut down his appearances. Having to travel to a different city every week has got to be rough on him.
From what I’ve seen the last couple of seasons, that’s what they’ve been doing.
