Crean will join FanDuel Sports Network as a Timberwolves’ analyst for the team’s pre- and postgame shows for the 2025-26 campaign, the network announced Wednesday.

Crean is now for his time as a collegiate head coach at Marquette — where he guided a Dwyane Wade-led team to the Final Four — Indiana and Georgia. Since then Crean has done plenty of college basketball television analysis, largely for ESPN.

Locally, Crean has frequently been featured on Dan Barreiero’s Bumper to Bumper afternoon radio program on KFXN-100.3 in recent years.

He will split analyst duties for the upcoming Wolves season with Rebekkah Brunson. FanDuel Sports Network will broadcast 65 of Minnesota’s 82 regular season contests.

“We’re thrilled to welcome Tom Crean to the Timberwolves broadcast team,” FDSN vice president of production Larry Holm said in a release. “His coaching pedigree, passion for the game, and experience behind the mic will add a fresh perspective to our coverage and offer engaging analysis for Timberwolves fans.”
