In an interview with GQ in 2021, SportsCenter reporter Malika Andrews opened up about what it was like to work on the historic program. “I was asked at one point during the [NBA] Finals whether or not I wanted to keep doing SportsCenter or other things, or if I just wanted to focus on the games,” she said at the time. “And the games were absolutely my number one focus, but I wanted to keep doing SportsCenter because I loved working with the producers and the other reporters. That’s the working environment that I’m coming from, that sort of collaborative effort. I want to bring what we had out in the field: that cohesiveness, that collectiveness, that fun, that hard work and that spirit of ultimately serving the fan. Because it’s not about us. And that’s what we’re trying to get back to. That’s what I’m trying to help us get back to.” Andrews also told the magazine about how working the NBA bubble for SportsCenter made her a better reporter. “I got to do a whole bunch of things that I’m not sure I ever would have gotten to do if I didn’t go to the bubble,” she said. “My first sidelines was in the bubble. I was on SportsCenter, getting those reps in the bubble. We were our own camera and production, between the one producer and myself. So learning what all of the people behind the scenes do, being that two man band, how often do you get that at a national network?”
