If true, that's about what was expected. I can live with those numbers. There was never any chance of getting him for much less.

Re: BREAKING: Kemba Walker Extended!
I called it. No way they could justify paying him under 12 mil after Lowry got it, how much Bledsoe got, and then Kyrie and Wall got the max.

Re: BREAKING: Kemba Walker Extended!
our PG spot is finally secured for the 1st time since this franchise has existed. no more awkward Felton/DJ scenarios. Kemba is our guy.

Re: BREAKING: Kemba Walker Extended!

Tricky Ricky has to confirm reports of other media outlets about the team he covers for his career. That should tell you something Rick.

Re: BREAKING: Kemba Walker Extended!
Great news to hear right before opening night. Seems like a fair deal, might even be a really good value depending on how much Kemba improves over the next few years.

Re: BREAKING: Kemba Walker Extended!
It gives us three years a of contract that falls under the new cap number. The first year of that new cap we can have both Kemba and Stephenson for a total of about 21 million. That will be a steal. The rest will depend on what happens with Al.

Our backcourt totals to 21 mil a year. The Wiz and Cavs are gonna be paying over 25 mil for their backcourt tandems when Beal and Waiters time come to get paid.

Re: BREAKING: Kemba Walker Extended!
Well deserved. Kemba has done nothing but made this team better since the day he got here. Not only with his play but there is no way big Al would have came here without him recruiting him and now Lance.
