Former NBA 1st Overall Pick Is Still A Free Agent
At one point, John Wall was among the best point guards in the NBA.
Coming out of Kentucky, Wall had a lot of hype, and he was the first pick in the 2010 NBA Draft by the Washington Wizards.
Most recently, Wall played for the Los Angeles Clippers (last season) and averaged 11.4 points, 2.7 rebounds and 5.4 assists per contest while shooting 40.8% from the field and 30.3% from the three-point range in 34 games.
However, the 33-year-old was traded to the Houston Rockets during the middle of the season (and then waived).
Wall still remains a free agent and can be signed by any team in the league.
It's safe to say that Wall lived up to the hype he received coming out of college, as he made five NBA All-Star Games over his 11 seasons in the NBA.
Wall has played for the Washington Wizards, Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Clippers.
His career averages are 18.7 points, 4.2 rebounds, 8.9 assists and 1.6 steals per contest while shooting 43.0% from the field and 32.2% from the three-point range in 647 regular season games.
He has also appeared in 37 NBA playoff games and led the Wizards to the second round twice.
While Wall is no longer the superstar that he once was, he could still be a reliable backup point guard to many teams.
Either a contending team looking to add depth to their bench or a young team in need of veteran-leadership would make sense.
