Hornets’ Walker Says Stephenson ‘Good Fit’

(Said Kemba Walker:) “I know Lance (Stephenson) really well. We spent some time last summer together, playing ball mostly, and hanging out. He’ll be a really good fit for us.”

Last season Walker helped recruit (Al) Jefferson. This month he pushed for Stephenson. There is no offseason.

“Of course I was excited,” says Walker. “You always want great talent around you and he’s really good. I think he can do so much on the basketball court and elevate the games of a lot of players. You always need a guy like that on your team.”
