Charlotte Hornets
The name discussed more often than any other on Twitter, Kemba Walker, is the star point guard that may be most available to the Suns if they pressed, and also could potentially be available immediately.
The question is, do the Suns really want him.
I ask that for two reasons: He is the same age as Eric Bledsoe, with very similar statistics, and is a free agent after next season.
If Eric Bledsoe couldn’t pull off a playoff run in Phoenix, and Kemba Walker has never been the kind of point guard in Charlotte to take them anywhere, would Kemba really make all the difference in Phoenix?
Still, he has name value and has been relatively healthy in his career, so adding him might help the Suns later snag that third star. An offer of Chriss/Bender, a first round pick, and Tyler Ulis, just might be the starting point, if not more than enough, to make a deal work.
