Lotus Communications Sports “Fox Sports 890/104.7” KSAC Olivehurst/K284CM Sacramento CA will add a local 3-6pm show hosted by Grant Napear on Tuesday, September 2.
Napear previously served as play-by-play voice of the NBA’s Sacramento Kings and afternoon host on Bonneville’s “Sports 1140” KHTK until resigning from both in 2020 after making insensitive comments about the Black Lives Matter movement in a tweet to former Sacramento Kings Center DeMarcus ‘Boogie’ Cousins.
Napear commented, “These past few years away from the mic gave me time to reflect on what it really means to be a voice in this community. I’ve listened, I’ve learned, and I’ve grown — and what stands out most is how much I value this city and everyone in it. Sports have always been about bringing people together. My goal now is to use that common passion to unite people from every background, to listen, and to celebrate all that makes Sacramento special.”
Lotus Sacramento General Manager Kurt Baglemann said: “Grant’s return marks an exciting new chapter for Sacramento sports radio. His knowledge, energy, industry connections, and his ability to connect with local fans make Grant one of the most influential voices in our market.”
