Steve Holman

Steve Holman (born March 5, 1954 in Lawrence, Massachusetts) is an American sports broadcaster, most noted for his work as the play-by-play broadcaster for the Atlanta Hawks of the National Basketball Association.

Holman broadcast his 1,500th consecutive Hawks game on March 5, 2007 -- his 53rd birthday.

The 2006-2007 NBA season is Holman's 22nd season with Hawks. Holman has also covered the Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta Chiefs (soccer) and Georgia Tech baseball since moving to Atlanta in 1980.

Holman began his NBA career in the early 1970’s as as a broadcast assistant to legendary Boston Celtics’ play-by-play voice Johnny Most. He first filled in for Most in 1975 when Most went hoarse during a game.

Holman also covered the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, calling radio play-by-play action for the United States men’s and women’s Gold Medal basketball teams, as well as boxing.
