Could Game 7 be Doris Burke's last NBA Finals broadcast?

If the rumors are indeed true, there's a chance Burke's short stint as one of the main featured color commentators for ABC/ESPN could be over after Game 7.

Burke has called games along with the legendary Mike Breen this postseason on ABC & ESPN's main broadcast team.

It's the last game of the season, no matter what, so if Burke is removed from the main team for next year, then we will hear new voices with Mike Breen for the 2026 NBA Finals.
