EX NBA player, and ESPN analyst Jalen Rose, is teaming up with ABC for a semi-autobiographical comedy. The comedy titled, Jalen vs. Everybody follows the former NBA player and current ESPN personality as he juggles his career responsibilities with the challenges of being a single dad.
Rose joined ESPN as a regular contributor for its NBA coverage. He was named a studio analyst for NBA Countdown — ABC and ESPN’s pregame show — in 2012. He co-hosts national weekday program Jalen & Jacoby with David Jacoby on SiriusXM. He guest-starred in a Fresh Off the Boat episode last year and also founded the Jalen Rose Leadership Academy, a charter school in inner-city Detroit.
