WNBA legend Sue Bird isnt done with the game just yet. Bird, who was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame last year, will reportedly join NBC and Peacock as a WNBA analyst, according to Front Office Sports. Birds role with the network is unclear. Its not known whether shes provide analysis from a studio or will perform color commentary during broadcasts. NBC is returning to the world of WNBA this season after agreeing to a massive deal with the league and the NBA in 2024. On the NBA side, NBC brought in legend Michael Jordan to break down the game and provide analysis. Jordans role, however, turned out to be more limited than expected. While Birds role remains unannounced, she should bring a similar level of accomplishments and expertise on the WNBA end. Bird, 45, is widely considered one of the best WNBA players of all time. Over her 21-year career in the league, Bird was a 13-time All-Star, eight-time All-WNBA selection and four-time WNBA champion. After retiring in 2022, Bird was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in 2025. Bird, who was selected by the Seattle Storm with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2022 WNBA Draft, spent her entire career with the franchise. She had her jersey number retired by the team in 2023 and had a statue erected outside the teams arena in 2025.
