In 2020, John Wall and the Washington Wizards endured a messy breakup.

Sometimes breakups don’t last.

Wall, who announced his retirement as a player in August and joined Prime Video as a studio analyst for its inaugural season broadcasting NBA games, will appear on Monumental Sports Network as a studio analyst for its Washington Wizards pregame and postgame shows, network officials announced Thursday.

Wall and network officials are finalizing his broadcast schedule, but the current expectation is for Wall to work approximately 15 games, a Monumental Sports & Entertainment spokesman said. Wall is set to make Monumental Sports Network studio analyst debut on Nov. 8, when the Wizards host the Dallas Mavericks in Washington.

Wall, 35, was named to five All-Star teams during his Wizards tenure, and he holds the franchise career records for assists (5,282), assists per game (9.2), steals (976) and turnovers (2,191). He remains revered within Washington for his exhaustive off-court contributions in the region, including in many of the city’s poorest communities.

Wall, the No. 1 overall pick by the Wizards in 2010, and backcourt mate Bradley Beal led the team to the playoffs four times, including three second-round appearances.

But Wall’s relationship with the team eventually soured. Significant injuries marred the final years of his Wizards tenure and limited his once-blinding speed on the court. In 2020, a video emerged of Wall in which he made a gang sign during a party.

Later that year, the Wizards traded him and a protected future first-round pick to the Houston Rockets for Russell Westbrook. That protected first-round pick hasn’t been conveyed yet and was subsequently routed to the New York Knicks; if the pick isn’t conveyed in the 2026 draft, it instead will be conveyed in the form of a 2026 second-round pick and a 2027 second-round pick.

Earlier this month, Wizards officials said in a press release that Wall would be honored “with a special celebration during the season. The night will serve as a celebration of Wall’s retirement from the NBA, his remarkable career with the team, and his contributions to the Wizards and the D.C. community.”

Brendan Haywood, who played nine seasons for the Wizards, also is joining Monumental Sports Network. Network officials announced Thursday that Haywood, a 45-year-old former center, will work as an in-game color commentator and will make his debut this Saturday, when the Wizards host the Orlando Magic. A network spokesman said Haywood is currently scheduled to work a total of seven games.
