ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith expressed his astonishment and mixed emotions over Adrian Wojnarowski’s unexpected decision to retire from his role as a sports reporter. Wojnarowski is stepping into a new career phase as he takes on the role of general manager for the St. Bonaventure men’s basketball team.

Over the years, Smith has developed a close professional relationship with Wojnarowski through their collaborative work on NBA coverage for ESPN. Although Smith is saddened by his colleague’s departure, he is genuinely pleased for Wojnarowski’s new opportunity.

“Having worked with Woj on NBA Countdown for several years, I can attest to his unparalleled expertise in the basketball journalism field,” Smith remarked. “He’s simply the best there is—extremely well-connected and respected. Working alongside him, I’ve had the privilege of tapping into his vast knowledge accumulated from years of covering the NBA. He’s always been the cornerstone of our reporting, holding the trust of the entire team to the extent that we wouldn’t broadcast news without his confirmation. His departure is not just a loss for us at ESPN but a loss for the entire institution. He’s a top-notch professional and I deeply respect him. While I’m happy for his new chapter, it’s a bitter-sweet moment for us.”

Wojnarowski, who graduated from St. Bonaventure in 1991, is transitioning into this pivotal role in his career while continuing to engage closely with basketball. His departure from ESPN signifies a significant gain for the realm of college basketball.
