As well as being a five-time All-Star, Wall made many contributions to the Washington Wizards.
He will surely be missed by all the city’s fans, the Wizards will now be moving forward with Russell Westbrook and Bradley Beal.
They are the two most explosive scorers in the NBA. Westbrook was the 2017 MVP, who recorded 27.2 points per game for the Rockets last season.
Meanwhile, Beal averaged 30.5 points for the Wizards. He is second in the NBA in terms of scoring and only behind James Harden.
Wall missed the entire 2019-20 season due to an Achilles injury. He’s now on the team Rockets with Harden, DeMarcus Cousins and Christian Wood in it.
As for the Wizards, they hope Westbrook and Beal can coexist on the field and lead the franchise back to the playoffs at the Eastern Conference.
