NBC is looking for a new host of Celebrity Apprentice, following Trump’s exit, and former NBA Hall of Famer Magic Johnson is reportedly in the running.

According to TMZ, the network is eyeing Johnson as one of their top candidates to host the reality game show.

The TMZ source told the site that NBC is looking for “a successful minority businessperson who’s active in the inner cities.”

Comedian and actor George Lopez is also a potential new host.

We’re here for Magic Johnson, but he’s really a nice guy.

Having Magic say “you’re fired” just doesn’t seem right. How about, “I’m sorry, you’re not hired.”
