One of the most versatile play-by-play announcers in all of sports, Scott has consistently broken ground with her pioneering efforts as a broadcaster in the NBA, NFL, and NHL. The preseason TV voice of the Seattle Seahawks since 2023, Scott also served as a play-by-play voice for men’s and women’s basketball during the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and was recently selected as the first woman to provide voiceover for the legendary Madden NFL video game series.

“We are incredibly proud to have Kate Scott lead USA Network’s WNBA coverage,” said Jeff Behnke, Executive Producer for Sports, VERSANT. “Kate’s experience and her immense passion for the league will be a big win for the national audience watching and listening to her call the WNBA on USA for years to come.”

Scott began her sports broadcasting career in San Francisco in 2011 where she held a variety of roles, including morning and midday sports anchor for KNBR 680-AM, TV sideline reporter for the San Jose Earthquakes and San Jose Giants, and anchor for NBC Bay Area’s Saturday night sportscasts. Scott also worked for the Pac-12 Network where she called games featuring many current WNBA players.

USA Network’s WNBA coverage, which will feature more than 50 total games across the regular season, Playoffs, and Finals, begins in May 2026 and will be anchored by Wednesday night doubleheaders featuring marquee matchups across the league, establishing USA Network as a weekly destination for WNBA fans.

Additional details about USA Network’s 2026 WNBA programming schedule, on-air game broadcast and studio commentary teams will be announced in the coming months.
