Adrian Wojnarowski has been suspended according to Outkick‘s Ryan Glasspiegel. The length of the suspension is unclear, but according to Andrew Marchand, Woj is not expected to be paid while serving his suspension.
The suspension is due to ESPN’s NBA insider sending an f-bomb thru email earlier this week to Missouri Senator Josh Hawley. Hawley then posted Woj’s email on social media, leading to a public statement from ESPN disapproving of Wojnarowski’s actions, and Woj himself issuing a public apology.
Hawley appeared on Clay Travis’s podcast earlier today to discuss the email incident and offer his thoughts on ESPN’s left wing agenda, the NBA’s stance on China, and the problem with sports becoming more political. You can hear the conversation by clicking here.
NBA teams recently began practicing inside the ‘bubble’ in Orlando in preparation for resuming the 2019-2020 season. Games haven’t been played since March 11th. No word yet on if the suspension will impact Woj’s ability to cover the NBA’s return to action.
