Washington Wizards: 5 biggest storylines to watch after the all-star break
By Keith Cork
5. Will John Wall suit up this season?
Lastly, and probably the one question still on every Washington Wizard fans’ lips, is the question about whether or not John Wall will take the court this season.
We’ve gotten so many teasers from Wizards insiders, with Wall dunking and even running in 5-on-5 practice. If he had to, Wizards fans have the feeling John Wall would be out there in a minute, no questions asked.
Teasers like this one are why:
And yet, he sits, and Tommy Sheppard recently confirmed he’ll be out for the remainder of the season, with no plans to play him.
Still, the Washington Wizards are in the playoff hunt, and Bradley Beal is hell-bent on making this team win, with his play and his words. If we make the playoffs, why would we entirely rule out Wall playing in a playoff series to try to give us an edge?
If one of those players from earlier starts playing insane basketball after the break, which isn’t unprecedented, and it looks like we have a chance at a historic upset, not only would the Wizards be robbing the DC fans, but basketball fans across the league also if they continue to sit John Wall.
Seeing John Wall on the court again would be such a treat, I guess we’ll have to keep watching to see if it happens!
