John Wall, former NBA star, wants to return to the league.

John Wall has not played any NBA game since January 13, 2023, in the Los Angeles Clippers' defeat against the Denver Nuggets. He played 29 minutes and scored 16 points. Since then, nothing at all after an injury: no one wanted to hire him last season 2023/24, and no one has wanted to do so in the current one. Now he is starting his career as a TV commentator, and the first thing he has done is to make himself wanted: he wants one last opportunity, his particular Last Dance.

Wall has spoken, making the following headlines on different topics such as his debut as an analyst:

"I will always criticize myself. I can improve a lot. I am learning more and more, but for me, it is about talking about basketball, what I love to do. It's what I do when I'm at home, watching games with my friends and kids. They tell me: 'Shut up and let us watch.'"

About his recent past:

"Last year, I was here training for a couple of teams. I was on another court, training before the games. That was fun. This was fun too."

About the injuries in his career:

"You do everything you can to take care of yourself, and injuries remain part of basketball. Yes, I think about that. I enjoyed the time I had. Sometimes I get frustrated. But God doesn't make mistakes."

About returning to the NBA:

"It would mean everything. You want to go out on your own terms. I want to finish it the way I want. If I play my last game, I want to leave the court my way."
