Career after Steve Novak it is already quite full. After finishing his NBA career in Milwaukee, the former Marquette University player (2002-2006) made a name for himself in the local media.
Since 2017, the 42-year-old former sniper has become a consultant and then a commentator for the regional network: first on the recording for the matches before and after, then quickly behind the microphone, to the extent that he has become one of the identified voices of the Bucks. He was also supposed to continue this mission this season, before the channel decided to rethink its organizational chart and schedule.
It didn’t take long for Steve Novak to recover as he was announced as a reinforcement on MSG Networks to join the Knicks! His role will be to occasionally replace the legendaries Walt Frazier to the comments. He succeeds Jamal Crawford, who joined NBC for a more prominent role on the national network.
It’s almost a homecoming for Steve Novak: he’s worn a New York jersey throughout his career, knows the environment and the public, and it didn’t take him long to get called.
“I played for nine teams in the NBA and I can honestly say that the two years I spent with the New York Knicks were two of my most memorable seasons in the league.”, he stated. “Having the opportunity to fill in for the legend Walt ‘Clyde’ Frazier for some games is extraordinary, and I look forward to discussing Knicks basketball with the great basketball fans in New York.”
The new recruit will have time to get oriented, because after the last two successes at Madison Square Garden against Chicago and Washington, the Knicks will have five more games in a row at home.
