Isaac Okoro has gained a notable distinction in the world of sports trivia, being the subject of Adrian Wojnarowski's final report during his tenure as ESPN's senior NBA insider. Ahead of the Cleveland Cavaliers' game against the Philadelphia 76ers, Okoro took the opportunity to pay homage to this moment by showcasing his special sneakers designed for the occasion.
As reported by ESPN's Nick DePaula, Okoro's sneakers, known as HOLO PEs, pay tribute to what has been dubbed 'The Final Woj Bomb.' This tribute came shortly after Wojnarowski's landmark report on September 14, where he revealed that the Cavaliers and Okoro had reached an agreement on a new three-year, $38 million contract. This announcement came just ahead of Wojnarowski's retirement from ESPN to take on the role of general manager for the basketball program at St. Bonaventure University, his alma mater.
In the light-hearted spirit of the moment, Okoro responded to Wojnarowski's retirement with a playful comment on social media, referring to the event as the 'Last Woj Bomb.' Following Wojnarowski's departure, Shams Charania was appointed as ESPN's new senior NBA insider. Meanwhile, the Cavaliers have enjoyed a stellar start to the 2024-25 season, boasting a perfect 12-0 record at the top of the Eastern Conference standings. Okoro has contributed to this success, averaging 5.8 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.8 assists, and if he plays a significant role in a postseason run, his contributions could become a memorable chapter in the narrative of both the Cavaliers and Wojnarowski's legacy.
