In what likely affirmed Walker’s status as the greatest Hornet of all time, the star guard broke Dell Curry’s franchise scoring record on March 28, 2018 in a loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. It took Curry 701 games to score 9,839 points for the Hornets, however it took Walker just 519.

Walker also ranks second in franchise history in assists, and third in steals. In 605 games with Charlotte, he scored 12,009 total points and made more field goals than any other Hornet. Walker had many moments in which he could have been declared the best player in team history, however, it’s his bucket in the final minute of a blowout loss that made it official.
