John Wall, Mark Pope meet for first time at Indianapolis AAU event

Major names from across the basketball world gathered in Indianapolis on Friday for an AAU event featuring some of the premier names in high school basketball.

Kentucky head coach Mark Pope and Arkansas head coach John Calipari were spotted sitting together during one AAU game. Later in the event, former Kentucky star and former No. 1 overall NBA Draft choice John Wall met up with Pope for a moment where the two exchanged and embrace and some words for a moment.

All of which was recorded by KSR’s Jack Pilgrim.

After greeting his alma mater’s new head coach, Wall made his way over to Calipari — whom Wall committed to nearly 15 years ago to the day (May 19, 2009) — where he sat with his former coach for a moment before settling in with his group to watch the action in Indi.
