John Wall gifts $40K Rolex watches to every Washington Wizards teammate

Dec. 22 (UPI) -- Perennial All-Star John Wall is also an all-league Christmas gift giver.

The Washington Wizards point guard recently gave his entire team Rolex watches for the holiday. Wall posted a video of the act Friday on his Instagram account. The video featured Wall sitting in a room with the other Wizards players. His teammates sat around multiple tables with boxes in front of them.

When they opened the boxes, they found the gold Rolex President Day-Date watches sitting on pillows. They were also engraved.

"Merry Christmas to my brothers I love y'all, Enjoy!!! Thank you @mrthanos for the Rolex Watches...#DCFamily#WizSquad!!!" Wall wrote on Instagram.

The watches cost about $40,000 apiece. That means Wall must have spent at least $640,000 for the gifts for each of his 15 teammates, if he also got one for himself.

Wall makes about $17 million annually on the court. He also has some high-dollar endorsement deals. The 27-year-old is a three-time All-Star and was an All-NBA selection last season. This year, Wall is posting 20.6 points, 9.2 assists and 4.1 rebounds per game for the Wizards.

His salary shoots about $37 million in 2019 and surpasses $40 million in 2020. Wall signed a four-year extension with the Wizards in July. That deal begins in 2019.

The Wizards face the Orlando Magic at 7 p.m. Saturday and play the Boston Celtics at 5:30 p.m. on Christmas.
