Crawford will replace Dwyane Wade as a studio analyst for the NBA on TNT Tuesday alongside Adam Lefkoe, Shaquille O’Neal and Candace Parker when the weekly show makes its season debut in January.

Crawford holds the NBA record for the most four-point plays with 55, is the oldest player in league history with a 50-point game, and is the only player ever to accomplish that feat with four different franchises. His pro-am league Crawsover in Seattle is one of the biggest summer basketball tournaments in the world and he’ll no doubt remain a must-follow on Twitter as he expands his analyst role to the national stage.
