NBA fans are reacting to John Wall being visibly absent in a viral picture of all the Prime Video analysts standing on the court. Wall joined the team only a few days ago, but it looks like the player is no longer with the squad.
Wall was actually criticized when he was caught staring repeatedly at his peer, Taylor Rooks, a few days ago, during a broadcast. Fans feel that Wall’s spouse had forced him to retire after he couldn’t keep his eyes to himself.
“They got rid of John Wall? (crying emoji)” Brick Center tweeted.

“(skull emoji) mans was staring way too hard. Either wifey told him to quit or they fired his a**,” one fan joked.
“Add ‘fired for eye looking’ to his resume,” another fan said.
“Yea Get rid of John his eyes are doing the dougie,”one more fan tweeted, sharing a picture of Adam Silver on a phone-call.
The reason for John Wall’s absence is not exactly clear, but the network itself has not exactly made mention of it. Meanwhile, Wall seems to be pretty happy with his own life, as he put on a recent sentimental Instagram post for his late mother, who passed away a few years back.
NBA Fans Continue To Roast John Wall For Thirsting After Taylor Rooks
NBA fans are having a field day mocking John Wall for being apparently fired from the Prime network for thirsting after Taylor Rooks. Neither Wall nor Rooks has addressed this, but the internet seems fixed on this theory.
“The HR department stepped in (laughing with tears emoji x2)” one fan stated.

“Internet a dangerous thing lol,” another fan said.
“He got sent to horny jail lol, he’d probably have been drooling if he say my fine a**,” one more fan added.
Of course, there were many other fans who quickly stated that Wall was simply a guest for some time and not exactly a permanent member of the squad. Despite all this, the common speculation in the comments is that Wall has missed the show because he was caught lusting after Taylor Rooks on national television.
Rooks herself got married a few months back, in a highly private ceremony. Rooks’s wedding was definitely one of those that highlighted this year, and he even invited a few athletes to the nuptials.
