Congratulations are in order for “Inside the NBA” host Kenny Smith and his girlfriend Tia Jurcic.

The couple announced their engagement in a joint post on Instagram Thursday, showing a snapshot of her stunning diamond ring.

“YES to you forever! ????,” the caption read.

The image included the couple’s hands with a beach setting in the background, though it’s unclear where exactly the former two-time NBA champion proposed.

Smith, 60, and Jurcic are extremely private about their relationship.

Jurcic shared their first photo together last February at a Super Bowl event.

She is a native of Croatia and her stepfather is economist and politician Ljubo Jurcic, according to TMZ.

Jurcic is a mom to son, Domenick, who’s a basketball player, class of 2030.

Smith was previously married to Dawn Reavis and Gwendolyn Osborne, a former model on “The Price is Right.” He co-parents two children with both of his exes.

Osbourne filed for divorce in 2018 after 12 years of marriage, and it was finalized in 2021.

Smith is gearing up for the move from TNT to ESPN and ABC — where “Inside the NBA,” with Ernie Johnson Jr., Charles Barkley, and Shaquille O’Neal, will air the Emmy Award-winning program starting with the 2025-26 season via a partnership with TNT Sports and the NBA.
