John Wall Denies Leaving Relativity Due To Stalled Shoe Contract Talks

Jan 18, 2016 8:20 PM

John Wall has denied stalled contract talks with Adidas contributed to his decision to leave Dan Fegan and Relativity Sports.

Wall reportedly wants a major shoe deal similar to James Harden's 13-year, $200 million deal with Adidas.

"That wasn't part of the decision why I wanted to make that" (agent) change, Wall said. "It was just something that I've been thinking about for a while. I'm still open to every shoe company. I'm going to talk to all of those guys through the process and figure out what I can do. I still have interest in Adidas and all the other companies that want to talk to me and have a meeting. I'm open. I've just been wearing what's comfortable for my feet and protecting my feet for right now."
