    The Knicks’ new radio voice is coming from the Red Sox.

    Tyler Murray, a 34-year-old “lifelong Knicks fan,” is replacing Ed Cohen as the regular play-by-play announcer next season on ESPN New York Radio, MSG Networks announced Thursday afternoon.

    The Connecticut native is currently filling in for radio play-by-play on Red Sox games behind Will Flemming.

    Counting O’Keefe, Murray will be the Knicks’ fifth regular play-by-play radio announcer since 2011, joining Spero Dedes, Mike Crispino and Cohen.

    “As a lifelong Knicks fan, it’s always been my dream to call their games,” Murray said in the press release. “The city, The Garden, the fans — there’s just nothing like Knicks basketball. It’s an absolute honor to join MSG Networks and I’m excited to put in the work to continue their incredible standard of Knicks coverage on ESPN Radio.”
