​John Wall revealed that his role as Howard’s President of Basketball Operations is serving as a crash course in the business of basketball, with his long-term goal of becoming an NBA general manager. “I want to learn the front office side,” Wall explained during a recent interview with 247 Sports. “One day I want to be a GM.” For Wall, the position isn’t ceremonial. Instead, he has immersed himself in nearly every aspect of building a modern college basketball program, gaining experience in player evaluation, roster construction and the financial realities of the NIL era.HBCU Gameday
