Washington Wizards All-Star point guard John Wall is finally going to make his return to the lineup for Saturday afternoon's home game against the Charlotte Hornets, according to a report tweeted on Friday by Wizards beat reporter Chris Miller of NBC Sports Washington.

Wall, who has been out of the lineup since Jan. 25 after undergoing arthroscopic left knee surgery, has missed the Wizards' last 27 games in order to recover from his injury.

Washington will finally get Wall back for their final seven regular-season games, but it is not known exactly how many of those games he will be active for. Of those seven remaining games, three are the second game of a back-to-back.

Wizards point guard Tomas Satoransky, who started in place of Wall while he was injured, anticipates going back to the bench and understands that his minutes will likely decrease.

“I’m looking forward to that and mostly I’m looking forward to having John on the court again,” Satoransky said, via an article written by Candace Buckner of the Washington Post. “It’s good to have him back before the playoffs just to kind of settle down everything.”

In just 37 starts made this season due to his injuries, Wall was still selected as an NBA All-Star and is averaging 19.4 points on 41.7 percent shooting from the field, a whopping 9.3 assists, 3.6 rebounds, 1.3 steals, and 1.1 blocked shots per game in roughly 34.3 minutes of action per contest.

With a win against the Hornets and a Detroit Pistons loss to the New York Knicks on Saturday, the Wizards (41-34) would officially clinch a spot in the Eastern Conference playoff race.
