The Washington Wizards have seen plenty of talented players to suit up for their franchise over the years.
Between the days of the Bullets and the Wizards, Washington and their fanbase has gotten the privaledge to watch players such as Michael Jordan, Wes Unseld, Elvin Hayes and Gilbert Arenas.
The list goes on, but as a franchise that's a bit less historic than the likes of the Boston Celtics or Los Angeles Lakers, not all names will ring a bell to NBA fans of today's age.
However, one name that most Wizards fan's know is John Wall, who recently announced his decision to retire from the NBA.
At least, Wall is set to retire from the NBA as a player.
Next up on his career path will be his new role as an NBA Analyst for Amazon Prime.
Regardless, his career as a player coming to an end has brought up the debate whether or not the Wizards organization should retire the former No. 1 overall pick's jersey number or not.
The Wizards have retired only six jersey numbers up to this point:
6 - Bill Russell (league-wide)
10 - Earl Monroe
11 - Elvin Hayes
25 - Gus Johnson
41 Wes Unseld
45 - Phil Chenier
Most of these players have left their mark on the Wizards franchise in more ways than one by suiting up for the team, outside of Bill Russell who's jersey is retired league-wide solely due to his impact on the game itself.
Wall, finds himself in an interesting category considering while he was one of the best players to suit up for Washington during his time, he doesn't have much to show for it in terms of playoff wins.
The former Kentucky product led the Wizards to multiple impressive seasons, but fell short of the ultimate goal after never being able to lift the Wiz to the Eastern Conference Finals during his time in D.C.
Despite that, Wall has left his mark on the franchise and finds himself in the top five in nearly everyt category you can think of.
Wall ranks 1st in assists with 5,282 career assists with the Wizards, 1st in steals with 976 and 4th in total points with 10,879.
Considering how much he offered to the organization during his time there and the effort he made to building a winning culture to contend in the DMV, there's a strong argument to be made that Wall's jersey number belongs in the rafters.
