Popular NBA TV show takes its broadcast to Indianapolis
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — TNT’s “Inside the NBA” will broadcast Thursday through Sunday from the Indiana Convention Center as part of the NBA All-Star Game weekend.
The show features host Ernie Johnson along with former players Shaquille O’Neal, Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley.
Andre Plaisance, vice president of live events for TNT, says from 75 to 100 producers and technical directors spent Wednesday setting up for the remote broadcast.
“Anytime you can engage with the fan and make the fan feel part of the show, it’s a great opportunity for both of us. Nothing is more exciting than getting on the road and being able to interact with the fan,” Plaisance said.
Local contractors were brought into help construct the stage that will play host to a concert Thursday featuring O’Neal, aka DJ Diesel, and rapper Machine Gun Kelly.
“I think we have up to 10 cameras to shoot the show tomorrow (Thursday) night and we’ll adjust that for the concert, but we’ll have more cameras and support crews to shoot the studio show because we actually have a live studio show tomorrow night that we typically shoot in our home studio but now we are taking it on the road,” Plaisance said.
NBA All-Star Game weekend events will be at three different locations: Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Lucas Oil Stadium., and the Convention Center. Logistical challenges, though, are not unfamiliar territory for TNT.
“You know, we have a relationship with the NCAA Men’s Final Four. We’ve been here frequently with our relationship broadcasting March Madness. We love coming to Indianapolis,” Plaisance said.
The Machine Gun Kelly and DJ Diesel concerts are sold out, although tickets were still available Wednesday for a Saturday night concert featuring Grammy-nominated rapper Jelly Roll.

Storms fade with dangerous heat building through midweek | June 27, 2026
TODAY
Patchy fog early gives way to a partly sunny, warmer, and much less active day. Highs reach the mid to upper 80s, with a light south breeze around 5 mph. After the unsettled Saturday, this looks like a far more usable day for outdoor plans, with most of central Indiana staying dry from start to finish.
TONIGHT
Mostly clear early, then becoming partly to mostly cloudy toward daybreak. Lows hold in the low 70s, with a light south southeast breeze around 5 mph. Humidity stays elevated overnight, but quiet weather continues and there are no meaningful travel concerns.
TOMORROW
Mostly sunny and hot with highs pushing into the low 90s. A south southwest breeze around 5 to 10 mph keeps the air moving, but the bigger story is the heat and humidity building in. Heat index values around or above 100 are possible during the afternoon, so outdoor plans will need extra water and more breaks.
TOMORROW NIGHT
Mostly clear and warm, with lows around the mid 70s and a light south southwest breeze. There will be very little cooling after sunset, and the muggy feel hangs on through the night. Dry weather remains in place.
TUESDAY
Sunny and even hotter, with highs in the low to mid 90s and a light southwest breeze around 5 mph. This is another day where heat becomes the main impact, and it will not take long to feel it during the afternoon. Outdoor work and summer activities will need to be paced carefully.
TUESDAY NIGHT
Clear and warm again, with lows in the mid 70s and a light southwest wind. The air remains sticky overnight, and there is still no meaningful rain signal for Indianapolis.
WEDNESDAY
Mostly sunny and hot, with highs in the low to mid 90s. Wind stays light, becoming south southwest around 5 mph in the afternoon. Heat remains the main concern, and another uncomfortable summer afternoon is expected across central Indiana.
7 DAY FORECAST
After Saturday’s leftover storm chances fade away, the pattern flips quickly toward heat and humidity. Sunday looks quieter and warmer, then Monday through at least Wednesday trend hot with highs in the 90s and heat index values over 100 possible at times. Rain chances stay very low through midweek, with the next better opportunity for showers and storms showing up later Thursday into Friday. Overall, the bigger concern after tonight becomes summer heat rather than repeated storm chances.
