CircleSeven 1955 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Looks like Marv is finally hanging it up. NY Post stated that longtime NBA play-by-play announcer Marv Albert will retire at the end of this year's NBA playoffs. He's been the main voice of the TNT coverage since 1999. The soon-to-be 80 year old has been calling NBA games since 1963.
