Hornets' Kemba Walker: Fully recovered from knee surgery

Walker said last week that he's fully recovered from the offseason left knee surgery he underwent to address a torn meniscus, Rick Bonnell of the Charlotte Observer reports.

Analysis:

Walker, who went under the knife in May, clarified that the procedure was elective in nature and was intended to reduce some chronic pain. If Walker was playing through any limitations last season, it certainly didn't show, as the 26-year-old submitted a career-best campaign with averages of 20.9 points, 5.2 assists, 4.4 rebounds, 2.2 three-pointers and 1.6 steals in 81 games. He should be in store for another big year in 2016-17 and shapes up as one of the better fantasy point guards.
