Adrian Wojnarowski has been suspended by ESPN for sending “fuck you” in response to an email from Missouri senator Josh Hawley about the NBA and China, sources tell Outkick. At press time, we were unable to determine the length of the suspension for the NBA insider as it’s being held close to the vest.
An ESPN spokesperson declined to comment and a rep for Wojnarowski could not immediately be reached for comment.
ESPN released this statement condemning Woj’s vulgar email on Friday.
