It’s a tradition unlike any other.
ESPN has its customary quintuple-header for the NBA on Christmas, and The Post has learned the announcing lineups for all the games.
The slate kicks off at noon ET with the Knicks hosting the Bucks on ESPN.
Dave Pasch will be on the call, with the legendary 90-year-old Hubie Brown serving as color commentator and Adraya Carter as sideline reporter.
If you’re in transit, this game will also be broadcast on ESPN Radio with Sean Kelley and Cory Alexander on the call.
At 2:30 p.m. ET on ABC and ESPN, the defending-champion Nuggets will face a Warriors team, presumably still without the indefinitely suspended Draymond Green, in a game announced by Ryan Ruocco, Richard Jefferson and JJ Redick, with Katie George as sideline reporter.
This game will also be on ESPN Radio, with Marc Kestecher and P.J. Carlesimo on the call.
Then, at 5 p.m. ET on ABC and ESPN, the Celtics and Lakers will renew their rivalry in a game called by ESPN’s top team of NBA announcers — Mike Breen, Doris Burke and Doc Rivers — with Cassidy Hubbarth serving as sideline reporter.
The Sixers will play the Heat at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN, with Mark Jones and Monica McNutt as the announcers and Angel Gray as the sideline reporter.
Finally, in the late game at 10:30 p.m. ET on ESPN, the Mavericks and Suns will face off with Beth Mowins and Stephanie White on the call and Jorge Sedano as sideline reporter.
