The Funniest Sports Commentators Today

• Years Active: 2000- Present
• Hometown: Leeds, Alabama
• Iconic Catchphrase: "GUARANTEE"

Charles Barkley may have made his name known as a basketball player, but he has become a national icon due to his on-screen personality. Chuck began his on-air stint in 2000 when he signed on to co-host NBA on TNT. The show has blossomed into the most popular sports talk show in history, winning a handful of Emmy's along the way.

One of the funniest things about Charles Barkley is how much he watches basketball but seemingly doesn't know about the sport. The crew will routinely play a game with Chuck called 'Who He Play For?' where they show him a veteran who switched teams and he has to guess what team they are on now (Spoiler, Barkley has never answered a single one correct). Barkley also routinely gives his predictions and follows them up with a "GURANTEE", but generally those predictions turn out false.

• Years Active: 1990- Present
• Hometown: La Mesa, California
• Iconic Catchphrase: Waltonisms

Another legendary NBA player to man the commentating booth is former Trailblazers center Bill Walton. "Big Red-Head" helped the Blazers win their only franchise title, but his career was cut short due to injuries. When he began his career in commentating, the world was introduced to a whole new side of his personality.

Walton regularly goes on long drawn out philosophical rants during the broadcast where he will reference just about every pop-culture icon of the 70's that you've never heard of. His hippie energy and love for the game is still ever present even at the age of 70. We hope you never leave the commentators booth, Bill!

• Years Active: 2006- Present
• Hometown: Lawton, Oklahoma
• Iconic Catchphrase: 'Does anybody know how to post videos to Facebook?!"

Stacey King was a part of the first three-peat the legendary 90's Chicago Bulls went on, and subsequently became a commentator for the team after his playing career. Notably, King called many of Derrick Roses most iconic moments in a Chicago Bulls uniform. His commentary was always full of hilarious flare. For example, whenever Kyle Korver splashed a three-pointer, he would scream 'Gimme the hot sauce Funk'.

• Years Active: 2015- Present
• Hometown: Cleveland, Ohio
• Iconic Catchphrase: 'OH MY GOODNESS'

Eric Collins made his debut as the Charlotte Hornets play-by-play commentator in 2015 and has made quite a name for himself ever since. It's uncommon to see regional commentators get national attention, but Collins calls are routinely going viral. The inflection and excitement in his voice are so genuine that its irreplaceable. I'm not sure if any call will ever compare to 'Oh Yeah! Terry two Beauties!!'.

• Years Active: 2017- Present
• Hometown: Welland, Ontario
• Iconic Catchphrase: 'Do the boys get a post-game pop in the hot tub?'

Paul 'Biznasty' Bissonnette didn't create his legacy on the hockey rink in the traditional sense. He wasn't scoring insane goals, racking up assists, or making game-saving stops on defense. In reality he was intimidating the other team as an enforcer, routinely jumping into fights and more often than not, he'd emerge victorious.

Today, Biz works on the NHL on TNT show, which is similar to NBA on TNT. The show was created to gain more traction for the NHL and to introduce the sport to a new audience. They have found a gem in Biz as he is routinely breaking down barriers with players during pre and post game interviews, as well as just being an all-around hilarious person.
