NEW YORK, Feb. 10 (UPI) -- Charles Barkley will be back on the air as an NBA analyst soon after TNT televises the NBA All-Star Game in Phoenix, a Turner Sports executive said.
Citing a report in the Sports Business Journal, ESPN reported Monday night that Barkley -- who was arrested in Scottsdale, Ariz., Dec. 31 in a drunken driving case -- would conclude a suspension from his role as a TNT analyst after the all-star festivities have concluded this weekend, culminating with the All-Star game Sunday.
