Comcast SportsNet's Steve Mix and KUTP's Eddie Johnson will swap places for tonight's broadcast of the Sixers game against the Phoenix Suns. Mix will join Gary Bender while Johnson will sit alongside of Marc Zumoff at the beginning of the second quarter. The swap will continue until the second commercial break of the second quarter. This is the first time the Sixers have exchanged broadcasters with an opposing team, while the Suns have been doing it throughout the season.

"This swap will offer Sixers fans an unique view of the team and I am excited about the opportunity to share my perspective of the game with the Suns' fans," said Mix. "Eddie Johnson is a very knowledgeable analyst and Sixers' fans will enjoy listening to his point of view as well."
