Story Highlights

A recognizable face is returning to the NBA on TNT fold after retiring at the conclusion of the 2022-23 NBA season. Longtime industry veteran Tim Kiely, who was essential to the Emmy-Award winning Inside the NBA s meteoric rise, has been named VP and Executive Producer of NBA Studio Production ahead of the upcoming season.

During his previous tenure from 1995-2023, Kiely served as VP and Executive Producer of Production and helped Inside the NBA take home 21 Sports Emmys and the first-ever recipient of the Curt Gowdy Transformative Media Award by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2020. Now in its 35th year, the program has become one of the greatest studio shows of all time with unmatched chemistry from host Ernie Johnson and analysts Charles Barkley, Shaquille O'Neal, and Kenny Smith.

Along with the NBA on TNT, Kiely has overseen the studio shows for MLB on TBS, NASCAR, Atlanta Braves baseball, college football and Wimbledon. He also played a key role in the launch of NBA TV.

Prior to joining TNT, Kiely served as coordinating producer at ESPN where he produced studio shows across multiple properties. He was also a producer for Mizlou Sports News Network and began his career at WTAE-TV in Pittsburgh for the station's sports coverage of Steelers preseason NFL games and University of Pittsburgh football and basketball games, as well as live remote specials from the Orange and Fiesta bowls, the Super Bowl and the U.S. Open golf tournament.

Kiely received his bachelor's degree in English from Columbia University, where he also lettered in football.
