Former NBA guard John Wall says even he was surprised by how suddenly his playing days came to an end.
Speaking in an interview published Oct. 9, the 33-year-old described his decision to step away from basketball as “kind of random.” Wall did not cite a specific incident that prompted the move but acknowledged the choice arrived sooner than he once expected.
Wall confirmed he will remain around the sport as part of Amazon’s on-air team this season, calling the new assignment a fresh chapter in his professional life. Details of his exact role were not disclosed, but he said the position will allow him to stay close to the game while sharing his perspective with viewers.
Without offering a detailed timetable for retirement, Wall emphasized that the opportunity with Amazon felt like the right next step and that he is eager to begin the media venture.
