Who Is Kamryn Jackson? A Look Into Shaquille O’Neal’s New Colleague Who Took TNT Studio by Storm on MLK Day

Kamryn Jackson has shown that she has what it takes. Jackson recently made an appearance on Inside the NBA after the match between the San Antonio Spurs and Atlanta Hawks. After an informative interview with center Clint Capela on location, Jackson joined the Inside the NBA crew with Shaquille O’Neal and the rest of the cast.

Kamryn Jackson is studying multimedia journalism at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University’s College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences. She is set to graduate from the university later this year. However, Jackson has already been named a member of the 2023–24 class of Rhoden Fellows.

“It feels amazing to be named a Rhoden Fellow. When I got the call, I was filled with excitement,” said Jackson. ESPN’s Roden Fellows is a year-long program that is aimed at nurturing young journalists from historically black colleges and universities. So MLK Day made the perfect sense for Kamryn Jackson to make her debut on Inside the NBA.
