The sports world got a major shake-up this week as former NBA executive and current television personality Bob Myers has been named President of Sports at Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment (HBSE), leaving his recent role at ESPN. This move signals a major return to front-office leadership for Myers, who will oversee a wide global portfolio of teams while bringing his championship-winning mindset back into management.

The Big Move

Bob Myers, well known for guiding the Golden State Warriors to four NBA titles and earning two NBA Executive of the Year awards, ended his stint as an analyst on a sports channel (ESPN) to join HBSE. In the official announcement, HBSE’s co-founders Josh Harris and David Blitzer said Myers will “work with us to deliver championship-caliber teams to the communities they serve.” While Myers had been advising Harris on the NFL’s Washington Commanders, the move to take full-time leadership at HBSE pulls him into a broader remit across multiple leagues.

Why This Matters

For HBSE, bringing in Myers is much more than a prestige hire. The company’s portfolio includes the NBA’s Philadelphia 76ers, the NHL’s New Jersey Devils, the Premier League’s Crystal Palace F.C. and a stake in Joe Gibbs Racing. Myers is known for melding analytics, relationships and culture to build winning teams — skills HBSE clearly wants to tap. The role gives him oversight across those varied properties, even if the current team reporting structures remain the same. For Myers himself, it means a return to executive decision-making after his time on the sports channel and commentary roles — shifting from analysis to full strategic leadership.

What the Role Looks Like

Myers indicated in his statement that the role offers “the opportunity to work with some of the industry’s most talented leaders and executives across the world’s biggest sports leagues.” While he won’t be the day-to-day GM of a specific team, his title covers “President of Sports” and places him at the intersection of culture, strategy and global operations across HBSE’s brands. The fact that Myers left his full-time role at ESPN — a major sports channel with vast reach — underscores that HBSE is offering a broader, more influential platform than broadcasting.

What It Means for the 76ers and Beyond

Although the 76ers’ front office and basketball operations teams remain directed by current leadership, Myers’ arrival sends a clear message about HBSE’s ambitions. His championship pedigree suggests he will have influence on long-term direction, maybe even leadership succession. Similarly, the Devils, Crystal Palace and other HBSE holdings now have a heavyweight executive backing the ownership’s vision — and Myers’ broad experience could help connect the dots across sports, media and global growth. The move also reflects the increasing convergence of sport, business and media: Myers moved from executive to analyst on a sports channel and now back to executive across multiple domains.

Key Questions Ahead

How will Myers’ front-office style translate across hockey, soccer and racing? His resume is strongest in basketball, but HBSE is relying on him to apply those principles broadly.

Will we see immediate change at the 76ers or elsewhere? It’s likely changes will be incremental: the hire is less about an instant overhaul and more about long-term stabilization and growth.

How does this affect the sports channel ecosystem? Myers’ move underscores how executives are increasingly moving fluidly between broadcasting roles on sports channels and direct team ownership or management roles — blurring the lines between media and sports operations.

What impact will this have on the next season and beyond? Myers will bring strategy, culture and championship mindset into HBSE.
