Just in time for NBA All-Star weekend in New Orleans, University of Kentucky great and current Washington Wizards point guard John Wall debuted his new emoji app called WallMoji.
The new line of 100-plus stickers and emojis, which are available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, combines Wall’s emotion, personality and lifestyle, both on and off the hardwood.
He even celebrates the past as a point guard for the Kentucky Wildcats and dons his old No. 11.
Within the app, the 26-year-old Raleigh, N.C. native also pays tribute to the John Wall Family Foundation along with close friends and family, too.
“I always use emojis when I text and loved to the idea of making my own but I wanted to be involved in the design and have them really look like me and represent my life on and off the court and think these did a great job. Can’t wait for my fans to see them!” Wall said in a statement.
Created in partnership with San Francisco-based mobile app development agency Bixby Apps, WallMoji can be shared among fans via the app, emojis keyboard and iMessage App for iOS 10.
Wall wasn’t the only NBA All-Star to launch an emoji app in the lead up to NBA All-Star weekend, though. Boston Celtics point guard Isaiah Thomas and Sacramento Kings center DeMarcus Cousins, among others, also debuted their custom apps earlier this week as well.
