<p>John Wall has experienced huge success since entering the NBA back in 2010. Now the five-time all-star is setting up for his plans post the NBA.</p>
<p>During All-Star weekend, he shared his plans to return to college over the summer.</p>
<p>According to <em><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wizards-insider/wp/2018/02/19/john-wall-plans-to-return-to-college-this-summer-because-he-promised-his-dad-hed-get-degree/?utm_term=.6d1f426cf589">The Washington Post</a></em>, Wall talked about to returning to the University of Kentucky to complete his bachelor’s degree.</p>
<p>He said, “I’m going back to school this summer to get my business degree. That’s what I’m focusing on. I promised my dad that.”</p>
<p>Wall’s father passed when he was 8-years-old, and in 2010 Wall left the University of Kentucky and was drafted by the Washington Wizards as the number one overall draft pick.</p>
<p>The 27-year-old admits he does not know exactly what he’ll do with the degree but understands the importance of having something outside of basketball.</p>
<p>“When our career is over, when we retire and the basketball stops bouncing, we still have to find something else to do,” said Wall.</p>
<p>“Whether you want to be a general manager, a doctor, a businessman, whatever, you have to believe on everything you stand on. We’re more than athletes and the stuff that’s going on in our society and in this world; we have to speak on it,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I think we have the right to say whatever we want.”</p>
