Hornets' Kemba Walker: To miss final two games of season

Walker (knee) will not play in either of the Hornets' final two games of the season, Chris Kroeger of WFNZ in Charlotte reports.

Analysis:

Walker was initially deemed doubtful for Monday's game against the Bucks, but he's now been ruled out for that contest, as well as Tuesday's finale against the Hawks. The All-Star is battling some soreness in his knee, an ailment he'd likely play through if the Hornets were still in the postseason race. In Walker's absence, expect some combination of Ramon Sessions, Brian Roberts and Briante Weber to soak up most of the minutes at point guard Monday and Tuesday.
