Andrews was especially grateful to work alongside his sister and shared a video of them having fun on the ESPN set.

“Just starting the week off with little sister appreciation and commercial break nonsense,” Andrews posted.

“I never take for granted how cool it is to work with my best friend.”

NBA fans shared their admiration for Andrews in the comments of his Instagram post.

“Obsessed with these attacks! Fashionable sissy of the time,” said one fan.

“You get everyone’s attention when you walk into the room,” said another fan.

“Has there ever been a more dynamic duo??? the answer is no,” said a third fan.

“Thanks for the love,” said a fourth fan.

Andrews is in his sixth year at ESPN after joining the network in 2018.

She initially served as a reporter for ESPN.com covering the Chicago Bulls and Milwaukee Bucks.

That role later expanded to include the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets.

Andrews’ career took off in 2020 when she was one of the first reporters to enter the ESPN complex to cover the end of the 2020 NBA season in the bubble.

Later that year, she led the NBA Draft broadcast with virtual prospect interviews during the pandemic.

She also served as a sideline reporter for the 2021 NBA Finals.

Now, Andrews is one of ESPN’s top NBA personalities, making appearances on SportsCenter, Get Up, NBA Countdown and more shows.

All of her work with ESPN helped her win a Sports Emmy in 2022 for Outstanding On-Air Personality/Emerging Talent.

Andrews’ sister, Kendra, joined ESPN in 2021 to cover the Golden State Warriors.

She still maintains this role and occasionally makes live TV appearances alongside her sister.
