Amazon Prime Video is "poaching" ESPN's Cassidy Hubbarth to be the streamer's No. 1 sideline reporter when it starts NBA coverage next season. Hubbarth will join Amazon's top crew featuring play-by-play voice Ian Eagle, and an analyst to be determined. TNT's Stan Van Gundy and ESPN's Richard Jefferson are "among its top choices." Amazon has "also had talks" with Dwyane Wade about a "hybrid role that would comprise studio and games" (THE ATHLETIC, 1/28).
