Kemba Walker will get to represent the Charlotte Hornets on more than one occasion this all-star weekend. He was one of eight players invited to participate in the three-point contest this year. The team will be well represented this season with Frank Kaminsky also playing in the rising stars game.
Walker will be competing against Klay Thompson, Kyrie Irving, Kyle Lowry, Eric Gordon, Wasley Matthews, C.J. McCollum, and Nick Young. In somewhat of a surprise, the NBA’s best three-point shooter in Stephen Curry, won’t be participating in the event.
