One of the greatest sports retirements took place this year, and it had nothing to do with an on-court athlete.
Adrian Wojnarowski, senior NBA insider for ESPN and famous breaker of sports news, hung up the Twitter account after a long and illustrious career breaking news so we could get the latest info on trades, injuries, and signings.
I totally understand, this dude literally had to be on his phone 24/7, I heard he had to bring it IN the shower with him just in case he was getting contacted about a scoop. The dude has a family and wanted to spend time with them and I am very appreciative for all he has done for us sports fans.
After retiring from the scoops game, it was announced Adrian would be taking on the mantle of General Manager of the Saint Bonaventure, his alma mater, basketball team.
In a genius way to raise NIL funds, Woj has decided to auction off specific phones he has used to break some of the most important scoops of his career, including the one he announced the NBA would be suspending play for Covid, and his press passes for important NBA drafts.
In the ever-changing landscape of college basketball in the NIL era, this is a genius was for Woj to raise money for his NIL collective and put his team in a better position to win.
