John Wall Broke Down Crying In An Emotional Postgame Interview Following The Death Of His Young Friend

The Washington Wizards beat the Boston Celtics 133-132 in double OT on Monday night behind John Wall’s 26 points, 17 assists, and 7 rebounds. Afterwards, Wall broke down during his postgame interview with CSN as he dedicated the win to his young friend Miyah Telemaque-Nelson, a 6-year-old who passed away to cancer earlier in the day.

It was last March when John Wall met young Miyah for the first time. After getting to know her and her family, Wall kept in touch and even arranged for her to meet Nicki Minaj. Miyah passed away from Burkitt’s Lymphoma on Monday morning.
