John Wall can be as funny as the rest of the internet, even at his own expense.
The USA basketball team point guard told Bleacher Report’s Yaron Weitzman on Thursday he also jokes about his unflattering headshot that took the internet by storm hours earlier. The Washington Wizards shared, then soon deleted, Wall’s USA basketball photo but not before it became an instant meme, with large swathes of social media suggesting Las Vegas, where USA Basketball is holding its minicamp, got the best of the 27-year-old.
Wall revealed to Weitzman he ribbed himself in a conversation with his mother.
Because I'm a very serious jorunalist I asked John Wall about the trending picture. He said he hasn't been on twitter today but saw the photo earlier.
'I sent it to my mom and said it looks like I just got to jail.'
