NBA veteran and Washington Wizards legend John Wall has announced his retirement from the National Basketball Association after an 11-year career that will live endearingly in the memories of DC basketball fans indefinitely.

Washington selected Wall at No. 1 overall in 2010 after he spent one season with the Kentucky Wildcats. He was part of head coach John Calipari's first recruiting class in 2009. The five-time NBA All-Star's last action in the league came during the 2022-23 campaign when he appeared in 34 games for the LA Clippers.
