John Wall was the first overall pick by the Washington Wizards in the 2010 NBA Draft out of the University of Kentucky. Wall is the fourth No. 1 overall pick in franchise history. He is coming into his own after his seventh season in the NBA.

Wall was selected to the 2010-11 All-Rookie team during his first year in the league. He was a All-Defensive team selection during the 2014-15 season. This past season, he earned Third Team All-NBA honors.

The explosive point guard averaged 23.1 points, 10.7 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 2.0 steals in arguably the best season of his career. He became the third player in NBA history to average at least 20 points, 10 assists and two steals per game.

Wall set the franchise records for assists (3,283) and steals (762) as well as the franchise single-season assist record (873), which was previously held by former point guard Rod Strickland.

He also set new single-game records with a career-high in points with 52 against Orlando on Dec. 6 and assists with 20 against the Bulls on March 17.
