Hornets' Kemba Walker: Scores 21 in loss
Walker posted 21 points (9-24 FG, 3-12 3Pt), 10 assists and four rebounds over 38 minutes in Monday's 115-109 loss to the Bulls.
Analysis:
Despite recording his eighth double-double of the season, Walker struggled with his shot on Monday and was better at getting the ball to other scorers, as he posted a team-high 10 assists. The Hornets' playoff hopes are fading fast as they continue to fall in the East, and they looked sluggish against a Bulls team that appeared to be born again with the inclusion of Rajon Rondo into the lineup. This was a game the Hornets should have won and they can't afford any more missed opportunities. Walker will hope to right the ship as they visit the Pacers on Wednesday.
