WATCH: The best of Kemba Walker’s 2020-21 season with the Celtics
It’s been quite the interesting start to the offseason for the Boston Celtics. First, Danny Ainge stepped down as President of Basketball Operations followed by Brad Stevens taking his place, leaving a vacancy on the bench.
And now, the Celtics will be looking for a new point guard as Kemba Walker was traded to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday, returning Al Horford to the Celtics alongside Moses Brown.
Kemba’s two-year stint in Boston ends as a disappointment for both sides. Walker left Charlotte for Boston to do one thing: win. And though the Celtics reached the playoffs both year’s, a trip to the NBA Finals fell short.
Injuries truly derailed Walker’s time in a Celtics uniform, missing a total of 47 games, including the last two games of this year’s first round series against the Brooklyn Nets.
In 43 games this season, Walker averaged 19.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 4.9 assists on 42.0% shooting, his lowest points per game and shooting percentage since 2014-15.
Check out the video above of Walker’s best highlights of his 2020-21 season with the Celtics.
