Wall (wrist) will be a game-time decision for Game 4 against the Hawks on Monday, but he's yet to attempt dribbling the ball, John Schuhmann of NBA.com reports.
Wall seems unlikely to play in Game 4 on Monday, especially given that he hasn't dribbled a ball yet. However, the team should provide an official update on his status at some point before the opening tip-off.

Wall (wrist) went through treatment Sunday but still has been unable to dribble a basketball, The Washington Post reports.
Wall missed the last two games against the Hawks and his return for Game 4 on Monday seems doubtful with this news. Ramon Sessions will continue to start in place of Wall moving forward with Bradley Beal taking on a larger role in initiating Washington's offense.

Wall (wrist) has been ruled out for Saturday's Game 3 against the Hawks, Hawks play-by-play man Bob Rathburn reports.
As expected, Wall will not be in the lineup for Game 3 after being diagnosed with multiple fractures in his left wrist. His status for the rest of the series remains in question, however, and he should be considered day-to-day. Ramon Sessions will make another start at point guard in Wall's place.

Wall (wrist) is "very unlikely" to play Saturday against the Hawks for Game 3, TNT's David Aldridge reports.
Wall is dealing with five non-displaced fractures in his left wrist and hand, leaving his availability for Saturday and the rest of the playoffs in question. Given Aldridge's report, it's doubtful that Wall will play Saturday. If Wall is sidelined, Ramon Sessions will likely get the nod at point guard.

The swelling in Wall's wrist has gone down, but his status for Saturday's Game 3 and beyond remains in question, David Aldridge of TNT reports.
Wall spoke with reporters Friday but didn't reveal any new information. He confirmed that he has five non-displaced fractures, but it sounds as though the team is yet to decide whether Wall will need to miss any time. Wall indicated that he would discuss the risks of playing through the injury with his agent as well as the team's medical staff before coming to a decision. As of Friday afternoon, Wall should continue to be considered questionable, but if he does play it's likely his effectiveness will be limited.

Wall (wrist) underwent multiple medical examinations, which revealed five non-displaced fractures in his left wrist and hand.
Wall, who injured the wrist during a fall in Game 1 on Sunday, did not play in Game 2, and his status is still up in the air for Game 3, despite the diagnosis. The team has not stated what course of action it will take as far as rehabbing the fractures, but at this point it appears Wall has not ruled out playing through the injury, as it's to his non-shooting hand/wrist. More details should be available Friday, when Wall is scheduled for a media session.

Wall (wrist) did not take part in Thursday's practice, Jorge Castillo of the Washington Post reports.
Wall has been absent from practice for the last two days, coming to the team facility only for treatment on his injured left wrist. At this point, his status is still firmly up in the air for Saturday's Game 3, but he's certainly the beneficiary of the league's quirky playoff scheduling, which gave the Hawks and Wizards three days off between Games 2 and 3.

Wall (wrist) plans to get a second opinion on his wrist in the next few days, David Aldridge of NBA.com reports.
Wall wasn't able to play in Tuesday's game two against the Atlanta Hawks, as the swelling in his wrist was just too much and it was affecting both his dribbling and shot. He claims it's not broken and that it's just a really bad sprain, but he'll get a second opinion on it soon and then hope the swelling goes down before Saturday's game three. Consider him day-to-day and questionable for Saturday, although having three days of rest could really help his case for returning to the lineup.

Wall (wrist) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 2 against the Hawks, the Washington Wizards report.
After being listed as active early on Tuesday, the Wizards have decided to sit Wall for Game 2. His wrist is reportedly still very swollen and the team is taking precautionary measures with their star point guard. His next opportunity to play will be at home in Game 3 on Saturday.

Wall (wrist) will definitely play in Tuesday's Game 2 against the Hawks, The Washington Post reports.
Wall hurt his left wrist during Sunday's Game 1 victory in Atlanta, and although he didn't miss any time because of the injury, Wall's hand is reportedly still very swollen. As a result, the point guard was seen wearing a wrap on his non-shooting wrist during Monday's practice. No matter, Wall is slated to play as usual Tuesday, as the Wizard look to build a commanding series lead before heading back to Washington.
