Hornets' Kemba Walker: Walkers scores 26 in loss

Walker tallied 26 points (10-24 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight assists, four rebounds and two steals across 35 minutes in Thursday's 120-103 loss to the Suns.

Analysis:

Walker had 18 first-half points but then cooled off, shooting 41 percent from the field. He also failed to find his stroke beyond the arc, going only 3-for-11 from long range. If the Hornets are going to climb out of the cellar they will need Walker to produce, but from a fantasy perspective, he's still among the league's most consistent floor generals. The Hornets will try to bounce back against the Pacers on Saturday.
