Hubie Brown got one last emotional sendoff from Mike Breen before signing off for the last time

There were so many moments of note during Hubie Brown’s final broadcast on ESPN.

So many people virtually stopped by during the broadcast, including Mike Tirico, to show Brown love during his final game. He even got the game ball after all the action ended and the broadcast came to a close.

But it’ll be hard for any moment you see to top Brown signing off for the final time.

After getting an incredibly touching spiel from Mike Breen about how much the former coach and broadcaster meant to him in his career, he talked about his path to getting where he got and how much every person he met meant to him along his journey.

This will hit you right in the feels, man.

“Today was humbling. Very humbling. Because you come to work and you want to give everybody 100. But you don’t realize the lives that you cross when you do 50 years of this and two years in the ABA. 52 years in the pros,” Brown said.

That’s 52 years of excellence. Thank you for everything, Hubie.
