Ric Flair called John Wall ‘one of the best’ during NBA All-Star Weekend

WOOOOOO!

John Wall didn’t win the NBA All-Star Skills Challenge, but his interaction with Ric Flair was cooler anyway.

According to the Washington Post, Flair seemed pretty ecstatic to see the Wizards’ All-Star point guard.

Over this weekend in New Orleans, the old narrative of being overlooked and underappreciated should have been put to rest. It’s hard to feel ignored when wrestling great Ric Flair strolls through the upscale hotel lobby, stops in his tracks and exclaims, “John Wall!”

“That’s one of the best right here!” Flair said, introducing his fiancee to the beaming Wall.

John Wall. NBA Tested, Ric Flair approved.
