During his signing in of a five-year contract extension by the Wizards in 2013, John recanted how Pulley worked “three to four jobs” and taught him to “strive to be a better person”.

“It was like a breathtaking moment, seeing my mom and seeing everything she worked for,” Wall had said.

“I mean, I do this because I love the game of basketball and I love playing it, but you also do it for her, as a single parent and what she had to do to raise us and I feel I’m fortunate enough to have the opportunity, especially, to take care of her for the rest of her life and do other things in the community”, he added.
