It is also the birthday of Kemba Walker, who was born today in the Bronx, New York in 1990.
The four-time All-Star would play for the University of Connecticut at the NCAA level and be drafted by the Charlotte Hornets in 2011, for whom he played continuously until the summer of 2020 when he joined the Celtics in free agency.
Since joining Boston’s roster, Walker has made an All-Star team — his fourth — and made an Eastern Conference Finals (his first) while averaging 19.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 4.9 assists per game.
