The New York Knicks have not played well regardless of Kemba Walker’s role this year. It’s unfair to say that he was the problem, but it was clear that his inconsistent play was a problem for the Knicks early on.
With a handful of Knicks in health and safety protocols, Tom Thibodeau had no choice but to play Walker on Saturday night. The vet took advantage of the opportunity by putting up 29 points on 5-for-11 from deep.
Although the Knicks couldn’t pull off the comeback against the Boston Celtics, Walker proved that he still has something left in the tank.
