On Friday, Frances Pulley, John Wall’s mother died on Thursday after fighting breast cancer. Kentucky Wildcats men’s basketball head coach John Calipari was among the first to announce it. The Washington Wizards also made the announcement earlier Friday evening.

The loss of a parent is very difficult to handle, regardless of the circumstances. Wall’s father passed away when he was a teenager and now, his mother is gone as well.

Our condolences go to John Wall and his family during this time.
