Clifton joined Prime Video’s NBA broadcast team last summer as a sideline reporter after six years hosting Lakers coverage on Spectrum SportsNet, where she became the first woman to call a Lakers game in February 2024. This season, Prime Video named her the studio host for its WNBA coverage, where she anchors a team that includes Hall of Famers Cooper, Swin Cash, Candace Parker, and Teresa Weatherspoon. Prime Video is in the first year of an 11-year WNBA deal covering 31 regular-season games annually, one first-round playoff series, seven conference finals series, and three WNBA Finals.
Road Trippin‘ launched in 2017 with Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye recording episodes on Cavaliers road trips, with Clifton as co-host, and has since added Kendrick Perkins to the lineup. The show joined JJ Redick’s ThreeFourTwo Productions network in 2024, then partnered with Backyard Ventures and Rain Delay Media earlier this year to expand its independent footprint.
Girls Tripp is its first standalone spinoff.
