Just a few nights ago it was reported by TMZ that Washington Wizards guard John Wall made it rain in a Dallas strip club. Wall spent nearly $50,000 in one night which probably happens a lot more often than we know. Former NBA star Jalen Rose has no issue with Wall wasting $50K on strippers, he actually thinks it’s “Charity work.”
“Russell Westbrook and John Wall both did a great charitable thing. Russell Westbrook giving a million dollars to UCLA, it’s noble, it’s recognizable, it’s something that’s going to create a legacy for his name for years to come. It’s philanthropic work. Now, the charity that John Wall did, that’s the charity that makes it to the hood, and it also is a donation to those who are working really hard to entertain adults that evening. And when a customer does come in and spends that type of cake, everyone leaves with full bags. And you know what? I support full bags!”
I sort of see the point Jalen is trying to make but I also don’t think it was necessarily something that he needed to speak on and give more attention to. John Wall is a grow man with millions. He’s allowed to spend or waste his money how ever he wants too. Some support strippers and other don’t but working as an adult entertainer is a real job. Wall clearly enjoyed himself if he was willing to throw $50K. Jalen talking like he’s been in John Wall’s shoes before.
