There was some confusion as to why John Wall was at the Cavaliers-Hawks game on Wednesday night. Now, we have an answer, and it's not the one people were probably expecting: He was in town for surgery, as the team announced today:
The Washington Wizards announced that guard John Wall underwent a successful procedure today to excise calcific deposits in his left patella tendon in order to eliminate pain and assist healing. He will begin the rehabilitation process immediately and is expected to be available for the start of the 2016-17 season.
