Chris Webber, Jalen Rose Among Legends Revealed for TNT Sports' CBB Studio Team

Former University of Michigan "Fab Five" teammates Chris Webber and Jalen Rose will be part of TNT Sports' college basketball studio show during the 2025-26 season.

TNT announced Thursday that Webber and Rose will be joined by former Kentucky and NBA star Jamal Mashburn, former Tennessee and Auburn head coach Bruce Pearl and host Adam Lefkoe.

Throughout the 2025-26 campaign, TNT Sports will present Big East and Big 12 games for the first time ever.

Webber and Rose starred together at Michigan from 1991 to 1993, reaching the National Championship Game in back-to-back years.

C-Webb went on to become a five-time All-Star and five-time All-NBA selection over the course of a 15-year NBA career with the Golden State Warriors, Washington Bullets, Sacramento Kings, Philadelphia 76ers and Detroit Pistons.

Webber previously worked for TNT Sports from 2008 to 2021 before departing, but this new role represents his return to the fold. The Naismith Basketball Hall of Famer expressed his elation, saying: "I'm excited to return to TNT Sports and join the fantastic college basketball team they've assembled. TNT Sports has always had world-class studio shows across all sports and we're going to do everything we can to live up to that standard."

Like Webber, Rose also enjoyed a lengthy NBA career, playing 13 seasons with the Denver Nuggets, Indiana Pacers, Chicago Bulls, Toronto Raptors, New York Knicks and Phoenix Suns, and winning NBA Most Improved Player honors in 2000.

Mashburn played collegiately at Kentucky from 1990 to 1993, reaching the Final Four and being named SEC Player of the Year in 1993.

The No. 4 overall pick in the 1993 NBA draft, Mashburn played 11 seasons in the league with the Dallas Mavericks, Miami Heat and Charlotte Hornets, earning one All-Star nod.

Pearl surprising retired from coaching last month, ending a 21-year run at the Division I level.

As head coach at Milwaukee, Tennessee and Auburn, Pearl went 475-222, reaching the NCAA tournament 14 times. The four-time SEC Coach of the Year twice took Auburn to the Final Four, including last season.

Per an official press release, TNT Sports will broadcast 72 men's and women's Big East basketball games, in addition to Big 12 men's basketball games this coming season.

It all starts on Monday, Nov. 3 when the reigning national champion Florida Gators face the Arizona Wildcats as part of the Hall of Fame Series. That game will be followed by a clash between BYU and Villanova.
