John Wall leaves Mavericks game early after suffering right leg injury

John Wall left the court during the fourth quarter of the Wizards' 116-104 loss to the Dallas Mavericks after bumping knees with Jeremy Evans.

He left the court and did not return.

Wall scored 28 points and dished 10 assists in the loss. The Wizards heavily depend on Wall in order to perform at their highest level, and we'll keep you informed as we learn more about his injury.

Fortunately from this tweet,

John Wall just walked by with a very heavily iced right knee, but walking under his own power.

it appears that this isn't anything serious, but let's keep our fingers crossed.

UPDATE at 10:10 p.m. ET - Wall will travel with the team to Miami and will play tomorrow if possible.

Wall got an MRI but doesn’t know results. He’s making the trip to Miami and wants to play if he can. He’s walking with a bit of a limp.

Wall actually had an x-ray, not an MRI. https://t.co/o6Dz4bIEK5
