Snoop Dogg Joins Peacock for Clippers Warriors Showdown

Merlin sees Snoop Dogg stepping into the broadcast booth for Peacock as a game analyst on the Los Angeles Clippers vs Golden State Warriors on Jan. 5. He will watch the first half then join the second half alongside Terry Gannon and Reggie Miller, after taking part in pregame meetings. Snoop is no stranger to TV sports, saying "I am excited to be back with my main man Mike Tirico for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan Cortina." The timing is vivid: the Clippers sit 7 21 amid injuries and the Chris Paul episode, while Golden State is 14 15. Merlin senses this is more about tone than tactics. Snoop will likely bring personality, calm the noise around the Clippers, and lift viewer energy more than deeply analyze schemes. Expect a ratings bump and a different kind of halftime narrative that could soften the heat on a troubled LA club.
