John Wall ruptured his left Achilles and underwent reparative surgery in February 2019.
The Washington Wizards All-Star point guard hasn't played an NBA game since but "can't wait to show [the league] what I got and what I'm about":
"I'm gonna be better than what I was before, and that's the scary part about it because damn near the whole—my five years I was an All-Star, bro, I played with two bone spurs in my knee and my heel," Wall said on the All the Smoke podcast. "And people don't know that. They ain't even get the best of John Wall yet. They just got a clip of him."
Wall earned All-Star nods in five consecutive seasons from 2013-14 to 2017-18.
