GREENBURGH, N.Y. — After arriving with hype and high hopes, Kemba Walker’s debut season with the Knicks has come to an end.
Walker will shut down for the remainder of the season because of his ailing left knee and focus on getting his body ready for next season, according to a league source.
When Walker was introduced during a news conference at Madison Square Garden last August, there were images of the Bronx native on the video boards outside and a flashy video inside.
