John Wall underwent multiple examinations Wednesday that revealed five non-displaced fractures in his left wrist and hand, the Washington Wizards announced.
Wall and the team are currently in consultation with multiple physicians and specialists to determine the best course of action and his playing status has yet to be determined.
According to Michael Lee of the Washington Post, Wall hasn’t been officially ruled out of this postseason, but his hand remains too puffy to fully evaluate for an accurate timetable. An injury this serious would keep Wall sidelined for several weeks in the regular season.
Wall refused to accept the initial diagnosis of a “real, real bad sprain” after X-rays immediately following the game were negative. According to a person with knowledge of the situation, Wall clashed with team medical staffers before sitting out Tuesday because he felt something more serious had caused his hand to explode.
