It has been 678 days since John Wall last played in an NBA game.
But these days, the Wizards guard is back playing against his fellow stars — in an old-fashioned game of pickup. Wall showed off how far he’s come since tearing his Achilles more than a year ago when facing off against the likes of James Harden, Andre Drummond and a number of other players in the league.
in a clip posted to social media, Wall looks explosive as he bursts to the lane, dribbles around defenders and even goes up for a slam dunk.

After missing all of 2019-20, Wall is expected to be ready for the start of next season.
