Yesterday former five-time All-Star and 2014 Slam Dunk champion John Wall announced his retirement after a decade-and-a-half in the NBA. But his motivation to declare his retirement might have stemmed from a lucrative new job he just received.

John Wall is retiring after 11 NBA seasons. Wall, 34, played most of his career with the Washington Wizards after they made him the first overall pick in the 2010 draft out of Kentucky. The five-time All-Star point guard finishes his NBA career with averages of 18.7 points and 8.9 assists per game.
