Watch Snoop Dogg Shine in NBA Broadcasting Debut With Warriors-Clippers Game: ‘Cookies & Cream’
Written by thesocialrealdeal@gmail.com on January 6, 2026
Before heading out to Milan for the Winter Olympics in Italy, Snoop Dogg completed another side quest while making his NBA broadcast debut as a game analyst for the second half of the Los Angeles Clippers and Golden State Warriors game on Peacock on Monday night (Jan. 5).

Rocking a sleek gray double-breasted jacket and an icy NBC chain, Snoop interviewed Warriors star Steph Curry pre-game and then slid into the broadcast booth with Terry Gannon and Reggie Miller at the Intuit Dome.
Snoop brought his hoop knowledge, West Coast flair and clever wordplay to the broadcast while dropping phrases, such as calling a Curry bucket “Steph-isticated,” and when a steal took place, he hit them with “cookies and cream.”
The peak of the broadcast took place when Snoop commented as Warriors coach Steve Kerr was ejected from the game following an outburst at the officials over what looked to be a missed goaltending call.
“Steve gon’ get thrown out. Get him out of there,” Snoop shouted. “Back him up! Steve back in Inglewood right now. Get ’em, Steve! You in Inglewood, Steve! The Arizona Wildcat done came out of him, look at him! That’s right, Steve.”
The Clippers ended up avoiding disaster and held on for a slim one-point victory, 103-102, as Jimmy Butler missed a potential game-winner.
Without James Harden in the lineup, Kawhi Leonard led the team in scoring with 24 points while Curry poured in 27 for the Warriors. Leonard sat down with Snoop and the rest of the broadcast team for a post-game interview following the win.
The rapper appeared to draw rave reviews for his unique perspective in the broadcasting booth, so there could be more of that on the horizon from the Doggfather. However, he’ll be taking his talents to Milan soon for the Winter Olympics, where he’ll once again serve as a special correspondent for NBC, as well as becoming Team USA’s first honorary coach. The Games kick off on Feb. 6.
