Kemba Walker Undergoes Surgery to Repair Knee Injury

Charlotte Hornets point guard Kemba Walker underwent surgery on his left knee.

Per an official release from the team, Walker had a "successful minor arthroscopic procedure" that will require approximately six weeks of recovery time.

In May 2016, Walker had surgery to repair a torn meniscus in the left knee.

There was some initial consternation from Hornets fans when the team gave Walked a four-year, $48 million extension in October 2014.

Given the league's rising salary cap, the 27-year-old has been a massive bargain for Charlotte.
