Lebron James empathizes with former Cat John Wall

To Miami Heat forward LeBron James, this is a been-there, done-that weekend. James said he empathized with what Washington Wizards rookie guard John Wall is going through with his team’s overhauled roster. Like Wall, James arrived as a No. 1 overall draft choice to play alongside a veteran, in his case Ricky Davis with the Cleveland Cavaliers, only to see that veteran presence dealt away during his rookie season. “I had to kind of become that number-one guy,” James said before Friday’s game against the visiting Wizards.
