Kemba Walker appears to have crossed some free agent suitors off his list.
Mike Fisher of 247Sports reported on Tuesday that the All-Star guard, a New York native, has no interest in a homecoming to the state. That would figure to eliminate the New York Knicks as well as the Brooklyn Nets from the running for Walker.
The 29-year-old Walker, who has spent his entire NBA career thus far with the Charlotte Hornets, is hoping for a big payday this offseason now that he is off a deal that paid him just $48 million over the last four years. His career-high 25.6 points per game last season should obviously help him secure that much.
A somewhat surprising new Walker suitor just emerged this week, and now it seems that the competition for him has narrowed at least a little bit.
