Keeping an eye on the NBA and Seattle's efforts to get back into the game

He's back.

Former Seattle SuperSonics broadcaster Marques Johnson will return to Seattle to announce Sonics broadcasts.

FSN announced today that Johnson, along with Steve "Snapper" Jones, will join Kevin Calabro as analysts on Sonics broadcasts this year. Jones will serve as the lead analyst on 60 of FSN's 70 Seattle SuperSonics game telecasts, replacing Lenny Wilkins.

Johnson, FSN's current PAC-10 basketball analyst, will team up with Calabro on 10 Western Conference games.

Jones is a Portland native who starred at the University of Oregon before playing eights seasons in the ABA, where he averaged 16 points in 640 games.

Gone for several seasons, Johnson reunites with Calabro. The UCLA All-American and five-time NBA All-Star has made a smooth transition to the broadcast booth, and is known for his interesting and informative game analysis.
