Adrian Wojnarowski and several members of his staff from The Vertical will join ESPN ahead of the June 22nd draft.

ESPN laid off several longtime members of their NBA coverage last week, including Marc Stein, Chad Ford and Henry Abbott.

Wojnarowski started The Vertical in 2015 as part of his new deal with Yahoo. Verizon acquired Yahoo for $4.5 billion last year.

Deadspin reported news of The Vertical joining ESPN in February.
