For many reasons, I hope @Kemba Walker and @Isaiah Thomas find their way back onto the NBA court.
But when their careers are over, I think they could become incredible coaches if they choose that path. Never bet against thoughtful people who understand the game. – 2:28 PM

You might have seen that the Mavs waived Kemba Walker or that the Spurs waived Gorgui Dieng & Noah Vonleh. That’s because non/partial guaranteed contracts in the NBA become fully guaranteed for the season soon.
Here’s how that deadline impacts the Pacers: forbes.com/sites/tonyeast… – 1:47 PM

Can’t imagine a scenario where the Celtics sign Kemba. They’ve already struggled to find Payton Pritchard mins – 1:14 PM

This is why I could never be an NBA general manager. Nostalgia and my superstar tweeting emojis, I’d sign Kemba — and probably IT, too — in 30 seconds, even if neither filled any of my team’s needs. – 12:59 PM

Not really surprised Kemba Walker is being waived. Dallas has most of their guards healthy now.
Walker showed well, but I’m worried this might be it for him. And that’s really unfair. He was going so well until getting hurt while with Boston. – 11:14 AM

Tim MacMahon: Sources: Mavs are waiving Kemba Walker, whose salary would have become guaranteed Saturday. Two-way G McKinley Wright IV has earned minutes and Mavs also want to leave path for rookie Jaden Hardy to get playing time. Walker had 32-point game for Mavs and was ultimate pro. -via Twitter @espn_macmahon / January 6, 2023
