More on this storyline
Nearly every key player on the main roster was present during the Hornets’ 80-66 win over Denver. LaMelo Ball, Miles Bridges, Brandon Miller, Tre Mann, Seth Curry, Grant Williams, Mark Williams, Cody Martin and Nick Richards all joined president of basketball operations Jeff Peterson and player enhancement coach Kemba Walker for an up-close view of the action, a powerful display of how Hornets’ culture is changing and being reshaped on the fly. -via Charlotte Observer / July 17, 2024
Kemba Walker: “I wanted to let everybody know that I’m retiring man, it’s over. Like, I’m done playing. It was a hell of a run. It was a run that I still can’t kind of fathom today. I can’t believe the things that I’ve done in my basketball career, especially with all the doubt that I got coming in, to all levels. There was always doubt, but I always grinded through it. I always had a great support system to take me through all these obstacles and stuff like that.” -via YouTube / July 6, 2024
Kemba Walker: “My parents, they grinded so much when we were young kids. Me and my siblings, they did anything they could to make sure we had food, clothes, Jordans, whatever. They wanted us to be good, be good outside, make sure we were healthy, make sure we were having fun and enjoying life. I just found out we were poor when I was young. Like, you know what I mean, that’s how great of a job my parents did. My sister was like, ‘We had no money,’ and I was like, ‘For real?'” -via YouTube / July 6, 2024
