Los Angeles faces Houston, seeks to break 4-game slide

Los Angeles comes into the matchup with Houston as losers of four games in a row

NOVEMBER 1, 2022 • Associated Press

Officially ruled out Wall has been ruled out Monday against the Rockets due to left knee injury management, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Wall said Sunday that he didn't expect to play during the second half of a back-to-back set Monday, and he'll officially be held out. Terance Mann and Brandon Boston should see increased roles Monday, while it wouldn't be surprising to see Wall return Wednesday in Houston.

Doesn't expect to play Monday Wall doesn't expect to play Monday against the Rockets for rest purposes, Andrew Greif of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Wall came off the bench during Sunday's loss to the Pelicans and tallied eight points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six assists and two blocks in 21 minutes. While he said Sunday that he would "love to" play against his former team during Monday's matchup against the Rockets, he expects to rest during the second half of the back-to-back set. Assuming he's sidelined, Terance Mann and Brandon Boston should see additional run.

Stuffs stat sheet off bench Wall accumulated 12 points (4-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals over 19 minutes during Tuesday's 108-94 loss to Oklahoma City.

Impact The fact that Wall managed to put up this stat line in only 19 minutes is encouraging, but it was also a game in which Los Angeles didn't have their two best players while facing one of the weakest teams in the Western Conference. Still, any progress is encouraging for Wall, and while he'll need time to get back to his best after not playing at all in the 2021-22 season, he seems to be getting into a rhythm after scoring in double digits in each of his three appearances to date.

Puts up 17 points from bench Wall closed Sunday's 112-95 loss to the Suns with 17 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-5 FT), four assists and one steal in 21 minutes.

Impact Wall showed flashes of his former self in the loss, and it may only be a matter of time before we see him as a starter in the backcourt. As one might expect, such a long absence from play requires a bit of seasoning before hitting full stride, and Sunday's total was a step in the right direction for the veteran guard.

Continues improving Wall closed with 17 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-5 FT), four assists and one steal across 21 minutes during Sunday's 112-95 loss to the Suns.

Impact Wall trailed only Marcus Morris in scoring, while leading the Clippers' bench in points and minutes played. He's an uncharacteristic 1-of-8 from the free-throw line thus far across two games, hinting at a slightly higher scoring ceiling as well.

Out Saturday Wall will not play in Saturday's matchup with the Kings due return from injury rehabilitation, Justin Russo of the 'Clip & Roll' podcast reports.

Impact The Clippers are going to exercise caution and ease him back into the swing of things for the 2022-23 season. Saturday's game is the first of a back-to-back set, so he will likely be available for Sunday's game against the Suns. The veteran point guard recorded eight points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3 Pt, 2-2 FT) to go along with four assists and three rebounds in 10 minutes during the Clippers' loss to the Nuggets on Wednesday.

Analysis | John Wall's basketball exile ends with a genuine second chance John Wall returned to the court for the Clippers on Thursday after 18 months out of action.

OCTOBER 21, 2022 • WASHINGTONPOST.COM

Makes successful return Thursday Wall amassed 15 points (7-15 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-3 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 25 minutes during Thursday's 103-97 win over the Lakers.

Impact Wall returned to the court Thursday after missing the entire 2021-22 season, and he delivered a solid performance during his team debut. Of course, it was not without its flaws, highlighted by some lackluster shooting. It appears as though the Clippers are going to bring him off the bench, at least for now, putting a slight cap on his overall value. He warrants attention in standard formats but can be a somewhat inconsistent fantasy contributor at times.

Grabs eight points, four assists Wall scored eight points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3 Pt, 2-2 FT) to go along with four assists and three rebounds in 10 minutes during the Clippers' loss to the Nuggets on Wednesday.

Impact Wall entered the game with five minutes left in the first quarter and dished out two quick assists on back-to-back possessions, hitting Norman Powell for an open three and then setting up Ivica Zubac with an easy dunk. He added another two assists in the second while knocking down his only field goal attempt and hitting 2-of-2 free throws in the quarter. He would not return in the second half but has shown enough already this preseason for the Clippers to feel good about their new bench piece.

Not starting Wednesday Wall will come off the bench for Wednesday's preseason game against the Nuggets, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact Wall had a decent night in his first start of the preseason Sunday, scoring 20 points while adding three assists and one rebound in 20 minutes of action against the Timberwolves. He'll shift to a reserve role Wednesday as Reggie Jackson replaces him in the starting five, but Wall's production should continue to improve as the Clippers embark on the 2022-23 campaign.
