Kupchak: Kemba Walker focal point of franchise going forward | |
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) General manager Mitch Kupchak wants point guard Kemba Walker to end his NBA career right where it started - with the Charlotte Hornets. Kupchak said Friday that Walker is "revered" in the Charlotte community, and that he and owner Michael Jordan look at the two-time All-Star as "the focal point of this franchise going forward." The 28-year-old Walker has been the subject of possible NBA trade talks as he prepares to enter the final year of his contract with the Hornets. That speculation has amped up recently because it is a practical impossibility for Charlotte to sign Walker to an extension before he becomes a free agent in July of 2019 since the Hornets are so tight under the salary cap.
