The Golden State Warriors announced today that Tom Tolbert will join the team’s radio broadcasts as a color analyst for a selection of Warriors games during the 2012-13 season. Tolbert, who played for the Warriors from 1989-92 as part of a seven-year NBA career, will join current radio play-by-play announcer Tim Roye on KNBR 680, the club’s flagship station, and the Warriors Radio Network for 10 of the team’s remaining regular-season home games, beginning Wednesday, January 2 versus the Los Angeles Clippers.

Tolbert currently hosts “The Tom Tolbert Show” on KNBR which airs weekdays from 3:00pm to 7:00pm. In addition to his radio work in San Francisco, Tolbert had stints with the NBA on NBC and with ESPN.

During the 1993-94 season, while with the Clippers, he was a teammate of current Warriors Head Coach Mark Jackson.

Tim Roye is currently in his 18th season of handling the play-by-play duties for all Warriors radio broadcasts. Roye also continues to host a weekly one-hour program on KNBR, "Warriors Weekly Roundtable," throughout the basketball season as well as the Warriors’ pregame and postgame shows.
