Washington, D.C. – Wizards guard John Wall will undergo surgery to repair a ruptured left Achilles tendon. The procedure, which has yet to be scheduled, will be performed by Dr. Robert Anderson in Green Bay, WI. Wall is expected to return to full basketball activity in approximately 12 months from the time of the surgery.
Wall had developed an infection in the incision from initial surgery on Jan. 8 (a debridement and repair of a Haglund’s deformity and a chronic Achilles tendon injury in his left heel that was also performed by Dr. Anderson) and he suffered the rupture after slipping and falling in his home. The rupture was diagnosed by Wizards Director of Medical Services and Orthopedist Dr. Wiemi Douoguih during a procedure to clean out the infection.
Wall averaged 20.7 points, 8.7 assists and 3.6 rebounds in 32 games for the Wizards this season.

I drive a mile out of my way to use a gas station that is $0.30/gallon cheaper on average than all of the other nearby gas stations. This guy can afford to fill up at Chevron and Shell at least twice a week... _________________ "All wars are civil wars, because all men are brothers."

That is BS, I know you pay $5.15 per gallon for full service premium. _________________ Love, Laker Lanny

I'm sitting at an event where i am supposed to be silent, saw this post, and involuntarily exclaimed "oh my god"
I couldn't believe those numbers....he apparently hurt himself at home and blew out his achilles after already being out for the season with a knee.
Yikes.
Apparently.
I'll be waiting for the follow up story on how he really got hurt a la Vlad Radmanovic/Jeff Kent/et al.
I mean, doesn't this situation scream of a Vlad type accident? I can't wait for the rest of the story to come out.
Not really.. IIRC he’d already been having issues with heel soreness from a condition where his bone was pressing on his tendon. And he had just had surgery on it.
People slip and fall at home all the time, especially when they’re already recovering from surgery and it’s awkward to get around.

Don't forget Monta Ellis and his moped.
I would have voided Vlad's contract and Wall's too if it turns out to be one of those. _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:

What sort of event was it?
Chess tournament
Hah, nah, i wish. I volunteer time to a local mock trial team and i was attending a competition of theirs at a local courthouse. We sim the rules as if it were a real trial before a real judge, hence the silence.

Were you a judge, a competitor, or just a spectator? How did people react? _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:
It will be interested to see how the Wizards build around Beal during this time he's out, and how he will react coming back from injury when it'll abolutely be Beal's team.

This is the kind of silliness that the Lakers have had to bear the cross for. A CBA that allows this kind of insanity and a great number of flyover franchises who are willing to put it into action. Teams like this who wind up in this position are going to conveniently blame teams like the Lakers, as if our "unfair advantages" are the reason for leaguewide stupidity. What a garbage contract. Those are numbers commensurate with prime Shaq's actual worth or Jordan's, only it blows out of the water the 4 million dollar deal that Hot Rod Williams got in a time where MJ, Magic, and Bird only made 2 million or so. The Achilles' tendon is a prime reason why any one player shouldn't get that much money. Now they're married to him without a prenup, only now he will have less quickness and athleticism. _________________ GOAT MAGIC REEL SEDALE TRIBUTE EDDIE DONX!
