KGMZ-FM New Home For Warriors Game Broadcasts


The Golden State Warriors and KGMZ-FM (95.7 The Game)/San Francisco enter a multi-year agreement to make the Entercom Sports station the new radio flagship of the Bay Area's NBA team. The Game will also offer expanded Warriors programming, including an additional 60 minutes of coverage to each of the existing 30-minute pre and post-game programs, highlighted in-season daily Warriors coverage featuring both Warriors and NBA-themed shows, Warriors Wednesdays and off-season programming.

95.7 The Game will continue to employ a dedicated Warriors reporter who will cover both home and road games and practices throughout the season. Radio play-by-play announcer Tim Roye will return for his 22nd season calling Warriors basketball, and will also appear regularly on 95.7 The Game programs on Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the season and on selected off-season dates.

"We're excited about our new partnership with 95.7 The Game and the opportunity to provide our fans with increased coverage of the Warriors in a centralized location," said Warriors President/COO Rick Welts. "Under the terms of this partnership, virtually every Warriors game -- including the playoffs -- will be broadcast on 95.7. Additionally, our fans will benefit from increased programming overall throughout the year, including extended pre and post-game shows, more in-season programming, a dedicated off-season presence and numerous call-in shows."

"We are truly excited about this new relationship with the Golden State Warriors," said Entercom President/CEO David Field. "It is a privilege to partner with such an extraordinary organization. We look forward to bringing our listeners exclusive, unparalleled coverage of the team both on and off the court."

"We know that our fans turn to us for the best-in-class sports content from the teams and leagues they care about the most," added 95.7 The Game VP/General Manager Steve DiNardo. "The Warriors are one of the most popular basketball teams in the world and we are proud to deliver play-by-play broadcasts and 24/7 team coverage to local fans in the Bay Area and to be the official home of Warriors basketball."

Prior to partnering with 95.7 The Game, the Warriors flagship station for each of the last 32 seasons, and for 40 seasons overall since the team moved to the West Coast in 1962, had been KNBR-AM.
