Via The Athletic:
“Tough days, f—ing tough days, I can’t even lie,” Walker told The Athletic. “Excuse my language. It was difficult. I couldn’t see myself just being on another team. It was just hard. That’s all I’ve known was Charlotte. Definitely some tough times. I had a feeling that I wasn’t going to get the offer that I wanted, and maybe not close to it, because of cap space.
“I had to get my head wrapped around the feeling and picking another team.”
Per Charania, the best offer came in at under $160 million over five years. Walker signed a four-year, $142 million max deal with the Celtics instead.
Clearly the Hornets had no interest in Kemba returning.
If they did, they would have ponied up.
