Taylor Rooks addresses how she maintains ‘credibility’ while forming relationships with athletes

Taylor Rooks is one of the true breakout stars of the last several years in sports media. The Prime Video anchor cut her teeth as a host and reporter for smaller cable networks before a breakout turn covering the NBA for Bleacher Report and TNT Sports. Rooks quickly leapt from digital host for the former NBA broadcaster to a feature reporter and NBA studio host for Prime. Along the way, Rooks, like many top sports broadcasters, has formed personal and public relationships with top athletes in the NBA and NFL.
