Boston Celtics player No. 2) Kemba Walker

Make no mistake about it, we here at HH absolutely love Kemba Walker. What he was able to do with the team during his first season, both as a contributor and a leader, cannot go understated.

That said, with his concerning knee ailments, lucrative contract, and continuously rising age, perhaps the Boston Celtics could find themselves looking to part ways with the All-Star point guard at some point this season.

Though some may perceive his value as substantially low, this offseason proved that he is still an asset teams are quite interested in, as a few front offices around the league reportedly reached out the Boston in regard to the availability of Walker.

While we don’t believe moving the All-NBA talent should be an easy decision to make for the franchise — when healthy, he is a huge difference-maker for the Cs –, should they be proposed an attractive enough offer, all bets are off.

Championship favorites like the Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers make a ton of sense in regard to teams that could inquire about a deal for Kemba Walker. Both organizations are point guard hungry, while also possessing quality return talents that could be used as draws for the Celtics to take part in such a deal (Kyle Kuzma is a prime name that comes to mind).
