Euroleague transfer rumors: Nikola Mirotic, John Wall, Jabari Parker and more
John Wall has always been faster than Mirotic, but especially with this rumor, which he squashed within 24 hours
Last month, former All-NBA guard Kemba Walker became the biggest name to make the jump to Euroleague this summer joining Mike James at AS Monaco.
Following a rumor by BasketNews, it seemed like Walker was surprisingly not going to be the biggest name of the summer because former Washington Wizards star John Wall was on the verge of signing with Olimpia Milan.
It, of course, would have been hilarious if Milan landed Wall and Mirotic after Messina implied they couldn’t even afford the latter early in the summer.
However, Wall personally took to Twitter to clear this one up very quickly.

For what it’s worth, Wall seems more ready to provide high-level value for a Euroleague team than Walker does. That’s not an indictment of Walker’s talent, but more of how his body has held up over the last two seasons or so.
And for Wall, how bad could a season in Milan, competing for multiple championships, really be?
