John Wall has announced his retirement from basketball. Wall was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2010 NBA draft by the Washington Wizards and was a third-team All-NBA selection during the 2016-17 season. Wall was also an Eastern Conference All-Star for five straight seasons between 2014 and 2018.
Wall’s career was derailed by injuries beginning during the 2018-19 season where his heel surgery led to a ruptured left Achilles tendon. Wall never played for the Wizards again as he was traded to the Houston Rockets after missing the entire 2019-20 season.
Wall missed the entire 2021-22 season and then played in 34 games for the Los Angeles Clippers during the 2022-23 season.
Wall turns 35 in September.
