Long-time NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski caught everyone by surprise when he announced his retirement from sports journalism to be the general manager of St. Bonaventure's basketball program.
Woj had nearly three years remaining on his contract with an annual salary of roughly $7 million per year, according to The Athletic. Because of his shocking retirement, the 55-year-old reporter is walking away from more than $20 million with ESPN.
This is a lot to leave if you're Adrian Wojnarowski. However, he probably doesn't mind letting go because he reportedly grew tired of the non-stop pace of the job where he was one of the primary sources of NBA news.
Woj thanks ESPN for giving him his "dream job"
Adrian Wojnarowski took to his X (formerly known as Twitter) to express his gratitude to ESPN, where he has worked for the past seven years.
"The past seven years at ESPN have been a particular privilege,” Wojnarowski posted. “I'm appreciative of the company's leadership — especially Jimmy Pitaro and Cristina Daglas — for the understanding and acceptance of my decision to make a life change. After all these years reporting on everyone's teams, I'm heading back to my own,"
"I leave with overwhelming gratitude for countless mentors and colleagues, subjects and stories, readers and viewers. No one has benefitted more than me from the belief, trust, and generosity of others," he added.
