John Wall was criticized on Twitter by one of the reporters covering the Washington Wizards, and he publicly acknowledged it with a response.
Candace Buckner, who covers the Wizards for the Washington Post, tweeted during Game 4 of the Wizards-Hawks series on Monday and threw some shade at Wall over his lack of defense on Atlanta’s Dennis Schroder.
Wall saw the tweet and responded with an “Lol.”
Lol RT @CandaceDBuckner: One day, Wall might actually try to defend Dennis Schroder.
Maybe.

Talk about awkward.
You think things are going to be a little weird in the locker room when Buckner is in there and approaches him to talk for a story next time? She just better hope he doesn’t give her the Russell Westbrook treatment.
Schroder had 18 points on 6 of 15 shooting in Atlanta’s 111-101 win.
