NBA TV on Aug. 8 will provide exclusive coverage of the  2014 Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Enshrinement Ceremony, network officials said Thursday.

 The network will open its coverage with a Hall of Fame Red Carpet Show leading up to its coverage of the annual event. Prior to the telecast, the network will telecast several Hall Of Fame-related specials, including an Aug. 4 special on the career of 2014 Hall OF Fame inductee Alonzo Mourning. On Aug.  5, the network will re-air two games from 2014 Hall Of Fame inductee Mitch Richmond’s career – his 40-point game in 1991 with the Golden State Warriors and his 47-point performance in 1995 with the Sacramento Kings, said network officials.

NBA TV and NBA.com will also provide live coverage of the Aug. 7 Hall of Fame inductees’ press conference. The network will also air two original Hall of Fame themed episodes of The Starters.
