The digital network, an all-digital, daily, live, subscription-free sports network that features over 75 hours of original podcast content weekly, was launched in August.  Scal & Pals, dedicated to NBA coverage, will launch September 23 and be co-hosted by Brian Scalabrine and Steve Ceruti.

He won an NBA championship with the Boston Celtics in 2008 and since retiring as a player, has been a television analyst for the Celtics, expanding on the cult-like following among NBA fans across the country he had as a player. Ceruti, a long-time producer at ESPN with experience working under Scott Van Pelt and Ryen Russillo, brings a passion for the game and an abundance of NBA knowledge. Kendrick Perkins will headline a group of regular contributors to the show.
