Adrian Wojnarowski has built a reputation as the number one source for NBA information. And he’s about to use that position to help expand his own empire.
Woj announced today on Twitter that he’s launching his own website. The website is expected to be called “The Vertical“.
Wojnarowski was a free agent during the summer, and had multiple suitors for his services, but he elected to stay with Yahoo. The company demonstrated they were fully behind him by creating this new platform and candidates were pursued to join the future website this past fall.
In addition to that news, Wojnarowski unveiled a new podcast, also called “The Vertical.” His first guest is NBA Commissioner Adam Silver.
