According to climbtheladder, a sports commentator’s salary in the US ranges between $41,033 and $59,890, with an average salary of $51,478.
Breen has also been a regular on the radio. He started out as a sportscaster on WNBC radio in the early 1980s and frequently filled in for Dave Sims as the anchor of the station’s “SportsNight” program.
The commentator hosted the sports portion on the nationally syndicated Imus in the Morning talk/comedy radio show from 1988 to 2000 on WFAN. Mike made some negative images in the media for his deadpan delivery of fake sports news.
Breen is now in his 30th season covering the NBA as of the 2021–22 NBA season; some of those 30 seasons were covered while Breen worked for NBC up until 2002, the network’s final season covering both the NBA and WNBA. In addition, he serves as the primary announcer on MSG networks New York Knicks games.
Mike first worked for the Knicks as a radio announcer for WFAN from 1992 to 1997. After Marv Albert was fired due to his infamous harassment scandal, Breen was promoted to television play-by-play.
Later, once Albert returned in 1999, he took over as the play-by-play announcer, eventually taking over when Albert was fired twice in 2004.
