LA Clippers at Washington Wizards. 7 p.m. Capital One Arena.

Since the day he was traded for Russell Westbrook in a deal between the Wizards and Houston Rockets on Dec. 2, 2020, Wall has been waiting to play in front of fans in D.C.

He scooped up 50 tickets. The two seats he wanted most, though -- where his mother used to watch him play -- were gone.
