The following is an official announcement from the Phoenix Suns
"The Phoenix Suns today announced the team’s comprehensive live game broadcast schedule for the 2023-24 NBA season, which features 70 regular season games and all five preseason contests airing on Arizona’s Family and live streaming on Kiswe. Suns games will broadcast locally on Arizona Sports 98.7, ESPN 620 and KSUN La Mejor Radio. Twelve games will be national exclusive broadcasts on TNT (7), ABC (4) and ESPN (1).
"The Suns’ ground-breaking partnership with Gray Television, Inc. and Kiswe to make Suns games available to all fans across Arizona tips off on Saturday, Oct. 28 at 7 p.m. vs. the Utah Jazz.
"Suns veteran play-by-play announcer Kevin Ray will return for his seventh season as the television voice of the Suns and will be joined by former Suns player Eddie Johnson and basketball Hall of Famer Ann Meyers Drysdale. Johnson enters his 24th season as a Suns analyst, while Meyers Drysdale begins her 12th season providing expert analysis. The Suns pregame and postgame shows will be led by Suns Ring of Honor member Tom Chambers, who returns for his 25th season, and Tom Leander, entering his 30th season with the Suns broadcast team. Phoenix Mercury forward Sophie Cunningham will also return to the Suns broadcast team as a guest analyst on select broadcasts. Pregame coverage will tip off 30 minutes prior to each broadcast, followed by a 30-minute show after the game.
"Arizona Sports 98.7 returns as the Suns flagship radio station, continuing a long-standing relationship that began in 1968. Veteran announcer Jon Bloom enters his first season as the new full-time radio voice of the Suns following the retirement of Suns Ring of Honor member Al McCoy last season. Bloom began his tenure with the Suns in 2008 when he joined the team as radio host and backup play-by-play announcer. Former Suns player Tim Kempton returns for his 22nd season as Suns radio analyst.
"KSUN La Mejor Radio on 1400AM and 106.5FM will return as the Spanish radio broadcast partner of the Phoenix Suns. Veteran play-by-play announcer Arturo Ochoa returns for his 20th season calling games, alongside analyst Samuel Sandoval who enters his second season.
