Outlook

Kenny is a very mobile player who has the ability and quickness to take his man off the dribble and can finish at the basket with strength (strong enough to finish with contact) and athleticism. Kenny is a versatile and tough defender, who can guard the post (Kenny played the 5 at the University of Alabama) OR the wing (has the speed, quickness and the footwork to defend the 3 position) with equal skill. In addition, Kenny is a great shot-blocker and a mobile rebounder with range, allowing him to track down long rebounds like a guard. He is a quality free-throw shooter who is very productive during his playing time on the court. An excellent pick and roll player with both a strong post game and accurate perimeter shot.

Kenny is an exceptionally bright young man who was All-Academic SEC in his senior year at the University of Alabama while earning his degree in communications.

University of Alabama Coach Mark Gottfried on Kenny 's skills, “An extremely versatile, agile interior producer with proven experience at the major college level and unlimited potential… Walker will be a great pro”
