Jake Cohen and Michael Roll join EuroLeague TV as commentators
The Players’ View debuts with ASVEL vs. Real Madrid in Round 26
EuroLeague TV subscribers are in for some truly revolutionary and exclusive content as a pair of one-time Turkish Airlines EuroLeague teammates will co-commentate select games together throughout the remainder of the season on the competition’s official OTT platform.
The Players’ View, which debuts in Round 26, will see Jake Cohen – center for Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv – and Michael Roll – a former EuroLeague player with Maccabi, Baskonia and Milan – offer fans the kind of insights and anecdotes that only the pros can provide.
EuroLeague TV subscribers will not only be able to follow Jake and Michael’s conversation about what’s happening on screen, but also hear their stories about the personalities of the game and the feeling on court in the heat of the battle.
What’s it like to face Walter Tavares? How do the hottest arenas affect a player’s performance? Who can defend Vasilije Micic with the game on the line? Jake and Michael will deliver such insights in this new content that puts players in the commentary booth with the freedom to use their voices and share their experiences directly with the fans.
The Players’ View is the last added-value content available to EuroLeague TV subscribers, following the recently launched VR streaming service, which brings an immersive experience to viewers as they view selected games produced with the latest VR technology.
Jake and Michael will officially debut The Players’ View in Round 26, when LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne hosts Real Madrid. They will be back on the microphones together in Round 27 with a blockbuster, Olympiacos Piraeus vs. FC Barcelona, and then in Round 29 for the German derby between FC Bayern Munich and ALBA Berlin.
