Hiroki Tominaga, who was announced to join the professional basketball team Levanga Hokkaido on June 3, has been revealed to be a guest commentator for the NBA Finals match between the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder, which will be broadcast on WOWOW. Tominaga said, "I played for the Indiana Mad Ants this season, so I'm happy that the Pacers have advanced to the NBA Finals."

The NBA's 2024-25 season has concluded with the Eastern and Western Conference Finals, with the Oklahoma City Thunder in the West and the Indiana Pacers in the East advancing to the Finals. If the Pacers win, the Thunder will be their first champion since the Seattle SuperSonics (1979). WOWOW will broadcast all games live.

Three B-Leaguers, including Tominaga, will make guest appearances on WOWOW's broadcast. Gunma Crane Thunders player Tsuji Naoto will appear on the first game at 9:20am on the 6th, Chiba Jets Funabashi player Hara Shuta will appear on the third game at 9:30am on the 12th, and Tominaga will appear on the fifth game at 9:30am on the 17th. Caster Nagasawa Sotaro will also appear on the fourth game at 9:20am on the 14th.

◇Comment from Hiroki Tominaga

First of all, I played for the Indiana Mad Ants this season, so I'm happy that the Pacers have advanced to the NBA Finals. I think this year's NBA Finals will be a showdown between two teams that will make you feel the new era. Each player on both teams has a strong sense of unity and chemistry, with each player clearly understanding their role. In a short-term showdown like the NBA Finals, in addition to team strength, you also need the strength of the "individual" in the moment or in the clutch, so I'm looking forward to seeing how the aces of both teams, Shea and Haliburton, will perform.
