John Wall is planning to undergo season-ending surgery to repair bone spurs in his heel that will sideline him for six to eight months, according to Adrian Wojnarowski and Brian Windhorst of ESPN.
Doctors determined the procedure is necessary for Wall to remedy an issue that has bothered him for over a year. Wall met with specialist Dr. Robert Anderson on Saturday, who recommended the surgery.
Wall was trying to play through the injury but it was getting worse, sources said, and opting to have the surgery now now should allow him to return healthy for the start of next season.
