The exit of Bob Myers from his executive post at the Golden State Warriors was big news in the NBA ahead of the start of the NBA Finals.
Myers was instrumental in assembling the Warriors teams that went on to win four championships in eight years, including back-to-back titles in 2017 and 2018.
Reporting from Front Office Sports indicates ESPN has expressed interest in hiring Myers.
Myers hosts a podcast, Lead by Example, through ESPN and Omaha Productions. It's unclear how Bob would factor into NBA coverage at The Worldwide Leader, or if he could serve in some kind of advisory role.
Media rights negotiations for the NBA are expected to take place very soon, and ESPN is going to be vying to retain rights to carry the league.
