Shams Charania Becomes ESPN's New NBA Insider
ESPN has hired Shams Charania, senior NBA Insider at The Athletic, to the same role at the global sports network.
Charania, fittingly enough, broke the news himself on X on Monday. The move comes after ESPN's NBA reporter Adrian Wojnarowski announced last month that he would be leaving the network to become general manager of the men's basketball program at his alma mater, St. Bonaventure.
Wojnarowski had been with ESPN since 2017. Before that, he worked with Charania at Yahoo! Sports on the NBA beat.
