Cardiac Back: Kemba Walker to sign with Dallas Mavericks

As if a bowl game, top 10 ranking, and pure domination over the state of Iowa weren’t enough for Husky fans, one of UConn’s best ambassadors got some good news today.

Mark Cuban probably saw the PKI tournament this weekend and wanted a piece of that sweet sweet UConn pedigree, because Kemba Walker, who hasn’t played live NBA basketball since Feb. 16, will sign with the Dallas Mavericks, per a report from ESPN’s Tim McMahon.

Cardiac Kemba was on the Detroit Pistons this preseason, but was waived by the team in mid-October. He was shut down by the New York Knicks last season at the All-Star break due to chronic knee issues.
