Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady, Hall of Famers and family members, are teaming up to launch a new podcast called “Cousins”.
The show will be a weekly series hosted by the current NBC NBA analysts and is set to debut on January 28th across all major audio and video platforms.
The show comes from Sinclair’s AMP Sports.
“We going to talk basketball in its truest form,” said Carter in the promo reel. “We’re going to talk about life in its truest form.”
Cousins unites the two superstars in a format that allows them to showcase their individual talents as well as their personal connection as relatives.
“When we talk basketball, I want to go really in-depth and talk the game of basketball and what it is today,” said McGrady.
They two will be joined by guests from the worlds of basketball, entertainment and culture.
“Vince and Tracy are two of the most influential players of their era. Their connection to fans has only strengthened over time,” said Rich Cooke, vice president of audio programming for AMP Sports.
Carter is an 8x All-Star and former Rookie of the Year. McGrady is a 7x All-Star and 2x Scoring Champion, so you know they know what they’re talking about.
“Tracy and I have seen this game from every angle, as players, as family, and as fans of the current era. With ‘Cousins,’ we get to give fans the real stories behind the highlights they’ve watched a million times and the defining moments that shaped our careers. While also breaking down today’s game,” said Carter.
His cousin echoed those sentiments.
“This isn’t your typical podcast. It’s up-close, personal conversations between two players who helped shape one of the most electric eras in basketball, and AMP Sports is giving us the space to pull back the curtain and bring fans into our world for the first time,” said McGrady.
You can catch Cousins on platforms such as YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
“We going to have fun doing it,” said McGrady.
