Why is Wall said to be Mr. $200 million?
His current contract was signed in the summer of 2013 for five years and US$84.78 million.
It started in 2014 and ended in 2019.
There are now two years left and is US$37 million.

In the next 6 years

He is also another Mr. 200 million US dollars in the NBA after Harden's 6 years of 228 million US dollars
Curry 5 years of 201 million US dollars
NBA Mr. 200 million US dollars
Although He was the No. 1 pick in 2010
, but in the years since he entered the league, people have always ignored him time and time again.
Last season, he averaged 23.1 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 10.7 assists per game.
Ranked second in the assist list.
However, when it comes to the top point guards in the NBA,
But very few people can think of Wall.
Some people think that he is in Washington.
That is the capital of the United States, and there is not much attention?
Do you know what the population of Washington is? 650,000!
For comparison, Cleveland has more than 2 million people
Not to mention big cities like New York and Chicago
The total population of Washington is almost the same as the Chinese in New York
You can understand why Mr. Wall It's the lack of spotlight
Like many NBA stars,
Wall also grew up in a ghetto.
His father was imprisoned for robbery
He died of cancer shortly after being released from prison.
Young John Wall gave up on himself since then.
He was addicted to fighting. Grumpy
Finally one day, his mother was exhausted and asked him:
Do you want to play basketball, or do you want to be like your father?
From then on, Wall was reborn and truly embarked on the road to basketball.
He spent all his time on the basketball court.
When he graduated from high school, he was already the No. 1 player in the United States.
Everyone knows the story after he entered the NBA. …
In December 2015, when Wall was booed at his home court
his mother was so sad that she cried after the game
I think that the person whom Wall is most grateful for to be able to get to this day
must be his mother
Excellent physical talent
The lightning-like speed
This is the greatest gift God has given him
No matter whether he is ignored or underestimated
His progress never stops
It is not good for a man to be fast
But Wall tells you
On the court, the faster a man is The stronger
is in him, do you see the shadow of Wade when he was young?
He is a grateful child
After successfully renewing his contract, he issued a statement:
Thank you to my family and the team for supporting me in the past seven years
I will continue to improve myself and continue to lead the team forward
Washington is mine Second home
I want to contribute to the community from the bottom of my heart
Bringing a championship trophy to this city is my ultimate goal
I will always work tirelessly for this goal
Outside the court, Brother Qiang is a A person who truly does charity
After a game in December 2014
Wall burst into tears during an interview
Because a 6-year-old girl with cancer, Mia, passed away
Brother Qiang and Mia were as early as 2013 We met
He also engraved Mia's name on sneakers
to pray for her, hoping that she could recover
He is not arrogant because he is a superstar
nor is he arrogant because he is rich
He He really regards this little girl as his friend
I think this kind of true love is enough to show Wall's kindness
