In this edition of "Inside the Arena!" KOMO Sports Director Niko Tamurian and KOMO News Senior Reporter Chris Daniels talk about the latest with the NBA and look ahead to the exhibition game scheduled for Climate Pledge Arena.

Niko goes in depth with former Seattle Supersonics and current Portland Trailblazers play-by-play broadcaster Kevin Calabro about his time in Seattle, his job in Portland, and what is potentially holding up NBA expansion. Calabro also discusses the trend for teams to move away from regional sports networks in favor of linear television.

Plus, Niko and Chris talk about the history made with the Seattle Kraken, a big hire off-the-field for the Seattle Mariners, and what's good and bad in the local sports business world in "Four Corners.”
