NBA All-Star John Wall retires from basketball, a look through former No. 1 pick's career

John Wall has not been a fixture in an NBA game for some time, but the former No. 1 overall pick and All-Star has announced his retirement from basketball at the age of 34. Wall's career was derailed by injury in the later stages but he had fantastic seasons with the Washington Wizards, the team that selected him first-overall at the 2010 NBA draft out of Kentucky. Mixed into his career are five of those All-Star honors, an All-Rookie first-team selection and a song named after him, "Do The John Wall," after his trademark celebration. Wall went on to suit up for the Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Clippers in his career as well. Take a quick look back at Wall's career in images here.
