Watch Malika Andrews stay calm on-air while 4.4 earthquake shakes ESPN’s L.A. studios

As a devoted follower of sports journalism and a keen observer of resilience, I find Malika Andrews to be an exceptional embodiment of grace under pressure. Her recent encounter with the earthquake in Los Angeles during her “NBA Today” show was a testament to her professionalism and unwavering commitment to her work.

An earthquake occurred during the live interview between Malika Andrews and basketball analyst Rebecca Lobo on ESPN on Monday afternoon.)

A magnitude 4.4 earthquake occurred in Los Angeles at noon, causing no panic within ESPN’s studios in the city. Remarkably, the host of “NBA Today” remained composed and poised, and their real-time response garnered numerous praises on social media platforms.

The earthquake caused cameras to shake and made the building tremble, creating mixed feelings of awe and confusion for anyone familiar with seismic activity.

“Andrews interrupted the conversation, as we’ve experienced a small earthquake here in Los Angeles. To ensure safety for our studio equipment, we’ll take a brief moment to secure everything.”

Andrews appeared calm and composed, subtly handling a minor conflict as she inquired if her colleagues were alright. Her voice was comforting while posing the question. The incident lasted briefly, and she gracefully resumed the video call with Lobo, who showed a surprised expression. They had been discussing the U.S. women’s basketball team’s triumphant victory over France during the Paris Olympics.

“Andrews posted, ‘This is truly a nerve-wracking situation in our Los Angeles studios.’ I’m grateful for our outstanding team who maintained their composure during this time.”

Without a shadow of a doubt, Andrew’s calm demeanor prevented the heat from escalating. By 2:30 p.m., there had been no injuries or extensive property damage reported.
