Miami Heat Rumor Roundup: Mike Conley trade discussed, John Wall almost joined ahead of 2019 deadline and more

#2 John Wall almost joined ahead of the trade deadline

John Wall is currently sidelined through injury

John Wall has spent his entire career with the Washington Wizards, and his huge four-year, $170 million contract won't even kick into effect until next season.

Due to this, many believed that Wall would spend the remainder of his career in Washington, although during a recent appearance on 'The Sports Junkies', Brian Scalabrine claimed that the Heat almost completed a trade for Wall back in January:

The John Wall situation is a disaster in Washington. I had word that the Wizards had a deal to trade him to the Miami Heat at the deadline, but his Achilles popped a month before.

Wall is currently sidelined by a ruptured Achilles tendon which he suffered when he slipped and fell in his home. The injury meant that he played just 32 times this season, and most executives around the league believe that he will miss the entire 19/20 campaign.
