John Wall will be out for the season after planning to undergo surgery to repair bone spurs in his left heel. 

The 28-year-old Wall had been trying to play through heel pain for years, according to Scott Brooks. He opted to have surgery now in order to recover in time for the start of next season.

Wall had been averaging 20.7 points and 8.7 assists on the season. 

John Wall sat out of the Washington Wizards' 101-92 loss to the Chicago Bulls with a left heel injury.

Scott Brooks said Wall will see a specialist for the injury, adding that the point guard has managed heel issues for years and that "it comes and goes".

Wall is averaging 20.7 points and 8.7 assists per game this season. 

Thomas Bryant shot a perfect 14 for 14 from the field and made all three of his free throws in the Washington Wizards' 149-146 triple-overtime win over the Phoenix Suns.

The 21-year-old Bryant, who replaced Dwight Howard in the Wizards' rotation, finished with a career-high 31 points and 13 rebounds, also a career-high.

Only one player in NBA history - Wilt Chamberlain - attempted more shots from the floor without missing.

"[Thomas] plays his tale off every minute. Energy, finishing at the rim, rebounding, blocking shots, contesting shots. Being up on pick and rolls, making it tough. He did everything we needed him to do,” said Bradley Beal. 

Bryant also finished with a true shooting percentage of 101%. 

The Washington Wizards have agreed to sign Ron Baker.

Baker was recently released by the New York Knicks.

The trade of Trevor Ariza was a "mutual" decision between Ariza and the Phoenix Suns, according to sources.

Ariza wanted a trade from the Suns after signing a one-year, $15 million deal in July.

Sources say Ariza checked out mentally early in the season as the team struggled.

Phoenix attempted to trade Ariza back to the Los Angeles Lakers, but that move was not something Robert Sarver wanted to make following their buyout of Tyson Chandler and his eventual signing with the Lakers.

The Suns will face Ariza on Saturday when they visit the Wizards.

The Phoenix Suns have agreed to trade Trevor Ariza to the Washington Wizards for Kelly Oubre and Austin Rivers.

The deal was reworked after the Suns and Memphis Grizzlies disagreed on the inclusion of either MarShon Brooks or Dillon Brooks.

Ariza signed a one-year, $15 million deal with the Suns during the offseason and became trade-eligible on Saturday.

Ariza and his agent, Aaron Mintz of CAA, had hoped that the Los Angeles Lakers could complete a deal with the Suns. Robert Sarver became more sensitive about trading Ariza to the Lakers following the criticism the Suns received after buying out Chandler to allow him to join the Lakers.

The Wizards weren't expecting to have enough flexibility to re-sign Oubre in restricted free agency.

Bradley Beal and Stephen Curry have been named the NBA's Players of the Week for Week 8.

Beal averaged 30.0 points, 7.0 assists and 6.0 rebounds per game as the Wizards went 2-1.

Curry averaged 30.7 points and 5.7 assists per game as the Warriors went 3-0.

John Wall went 0-5 and scored a career-low 1 point in the Washington Wizards 116-101 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Fighting through a left heel injury, Wall admitted that he shouldn't have played in the game. 

“It’s just like a bone spur. I probably shouldn’t have played. That’s my fault. But you learn from your mistakes.” Wall then added that his performance was the "worst game of my life. One free throw. No field goals”.

Despite his struggles, Wall is averaging the second highest scoring total of his career at 21.3 point per game. 

The Washington Wizards will join the trade between the Milwaukee Bucks and Cleveland Cavaliers to acquire Sam Dekker for Jason Smith and a future second round pick.

Milwaukee acquired George Hill from the Cavaliers while also saving cap space.

The Cavaliers and Wizards will swap second round picks, with Cleveland getting Washington's second in 2021 and sending their second in 2022.

Washington's tax bill will drop from $14.49 million to $9.79 million by trading out Smith's $5.45 million salary for Dekker's $2.68 million salary.

John Wall will sit out tonight's game against the Atlanta Hawks due to "personal reasons". Although the team did not give specifics, he is expecting the birth of his first child.

A frequent target of trade rumors, Wall is averaging 21.3 points and 8.4 assists this season.

Tomas Satoransky and Austin Rivers are likely to replace his minutes in the lineup.
