John Wall eyes NBA comeback

[catsfanbgky]

I do not know what to think about this. he has been out for a minute, he is already injury prone, and time away and few years older can't help. I see a hamstring injury in his future. Wish all the luck, but father time is undefeated. Go get it Wall, hit that Dougie for old times sake.

There is an article on the front page of Yahoo Sports talking about it. He said he felt he was the 2nd best player is the East behind Lebron in the 16-17 year. That year was his best, he averaged 23.1 points, 10.7 assist, and 2 steals per game.

I'll root for John Wall in anything he does. The excitement he brought back into the program was crazy. I loved Meeks and Pat but Wall made it cool to be a Kentucky fan again after the years they went through.

He was a blast to watch that 2016-2017 season, really good in the 2017 playoffs. That being said it's probably time for him to move on to the next phase of his life. I'm not sure he ever developed the other skills necessary to be great after his athleticism waned.

Time to move on to coaching. I know a good place for him to get started.

Agree, he needs to stay retired. But he was solid at both ends of the floor other than 3 point shooting, career 32%. But as a PG, he was a terror, only other PG from UK faster, MAYBE Fox.

Career #'s (including the last few down years : 19 ppg / 4 reb. / 9 assist / 1.6 steals.

If he stayed healthy, he would have been a hall of famer.

His time in Houston sealed his fate.

Celtic Cat :

How so ? He last played for the Clippers in the 22-23 season. Played in 34 games, averaged 22 minutes per game. 11.4 points and 5.2 assist per game. Not All Star level by no means, but he still had value to a team in a backup PG role.

I was wondering why he wasn’t on the La Familia team.

 

[Nubb16]

I’ll get my Wall jersey out.

Suns needs a PG on the cheap
