1. vs. Memphis Grizzles (3/22/18)

Stats: 46 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists

This game is fresh in the minds of Hornets fans as it took place only a few months ago but it is a game that most will never forget. The Hornets ended up winning this game by a final score of 140-79 thanks in large part to Walker’s 46 points and a franchise record 10 made three pointers.

The 10 three pointers are impressive but he only needed 14 attempts and shot over 71% from behind the arc. He also was a perfect 10 for 10 from the free throw line.

This is only his third highest point total in the game and he didn’t really contribute in any other statical categories. However the reason this is Kemba Walkers’ best game with the Charlotte Hornets is because of how efficient he was. He was able to put up these points in a little over a half of action, playing only 27 minutes and 56 seconds.

At only 28 years of age, Kemba Walker still has plenty of great basketball left in him and it will be interesting to see what games are able to make this list in the future.
