He was recently let go by the Golden State Warriors, but Mark Jackson wasn’t out of a job for long. ESPN has announced that he’s returning to the network via a multi-year contract and rejoining his friends, Mike Breen and Jeff Van Gundy at the courtside broadcast table in time for the NBA Eastern Conference Finals. Incidentally, the ECF begin on Sunday so Jackson goes right into the broadcast fire right away.
When Jackson was fired from Golden State, observers speculated that Jackson would probably return to broadcast and that’s exactly what happened. Ironically, while Jackson who was previously with ESPN before coaching Golden State, was replaced by TNT analyst Steve Kerr.
