Despite private meeting between Marcin Gortat and John Wall there is still more work to be done to repair the relationship between the two Wizards players.

Per ESPN, Washington Wizards teammates John Wall and Marcin Gortat met privately last week to confront each other about where they stood with one another, league sources told ESPN.

After a 122-119 win over the red-hot Toronto Raptors on Feb. 1, the team's third consecutive victory with Wall sidelined as he recovers from knee surgery, Gortat tweeted:

Soon after, Wall, sources say, reached out to Gortat via a text message and essentially stated that if there's a problem, direct it to him instead of using social media to spew backhanded insults, sources with knowledge of the conversation told ESPN.
Gortat has explained that his tweet was never intended as a jab at Wall, and reiterated that he was genuinely praising the team for a big win.
When ESPN's Michael Smith asked Wall about Gortat's tweet on SportsCenter, the point guard replied, "It was more just shock to hear it from him, understanding he gets the most assists from me and the most spoon-fed baskets ever."
