Wizards' John Wall: Could play both games of back-to-back

Coach Scott Brooks said Monday that Wall could be cleared to play both games of the Wizards' upcoming back-to-back set scheduled for Wednesday against the 76ers and Thursday against the Knicks, J. Michael of CSN Mid-Atlantic reports.

Analysis:

After undergoing multiple knee procedures in the offseason, Wall has been held out for one half of both of the team's back-to-back sets to begin the season. However, he's now progressed to the point that the Wizards are considering allowing him to play both Wednesday against the 76ers and Thursday against the Knicks. If that ends up being the case, Brooks implied that Wall's minutes would be restricted in one of the games. Either way, though, it's an encouraging sign for Wall owners.
