Now, in his eighth season, Walker has developed into a fully fledged All-Star point guard who is putting up the best offensive numbers of his career. At 28, Walker is averaging a career-high 24.4 points per game as he tries to keep the Hornets in the thick of the Eastern Conference playoff race.
With the All-Star Game heading to Charlotte this season, there was speculation mounting that Walker’s name wouldn’t just be called as a reserve, but he may even make the leap to All-Star starter.
Last week, Hornets fans saw those hopes come to fruition when the NBA announced that Walker had earned the final Eastern Conference starter spot.
The All-Star Game may be a few weeks away, but Hornets fans can get the party started early with new merch that just dropped to celebrate Kemba’s moment in the spotlight as he represents the city of Charlotte.
