Everyone knew that Andray Blatche was going elsewhere when his contract expired, and the Grizzlies gave Blatche his wish, but a few months earlier than planned.

The Memphis Grizzlies traded Marc Gasol to the Washington Wizards for all-star Andray Blatche.

The West All-Stars defeated the East All-Stars, 101-76

Washington Wizards (17-10) at Utah Jazz (12-14) at 7:30pm est - Away Team Box Score - Home Team Box Score

THE STORYLINE: The Wizards visited the Spurs for a classic heavyweight matchup, the game was close until the Wizards started hitting 3 pointers non stop which put them out of reach.

WHAT WE SAW:

Hitting a Wall? John Wall or commonly known as J-Wow now may of scored 26 points, adding 16 assists and recorded 5 steals but he went a disastrous 10 of 38 on field goals and 3 of 13 on three pointers, Wall is still the favorite to win the MVP award with less than 1 month or so left in the season.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Forty-Two long year's waiting has finally ended. John Wall was voted as the 2011 League MVP.

"I first want to thank my family, my coach, the Washington Wizards organization, my team-mates, Kentucky, everyone that has helped me accomplish this goal of mine," said Wall as he spoke about privileged he was on accepting and winning the award.

The Last Washington Wizard to receive the award was back in 1969, and the hall of famer went by the name Wes Unseld.

"John Wall is the league's best player," said coach Flip Saunder to the media after the ceremony. "It's an award he thoroughly deserved, he deserved it last year, but I guess, a one year wait really paid off, he's such a dynamic baller, he's just the best."

Wall averaged 20.8 points per game, 15.2 assists per game, 4.0 steals per game and hit 48% of his field goals.
