He’s probably going down because he missed all of training camp, and needs to get into game shape?

Otherwise i don’t get why he’s going down and not JR.

I hope this isn't a bad sign for Walker's future with the team.

He’s a lot more impressive than Giddens/Pruitt/Hudson had ever been.

I agree 100% with you USG.

Giddens or Pruitt, yes--not Hudson.

He'll be alright

he’s still on the roster. Not much playing time for him right to get back in game shape, so why not send him to the d-league and do it there?. if TA was healthy JR would’ve went also.

So he's going....

And not Hudson? Hmm. I like that. : )

We need Walker...

he is young , athletic and energetic and is just what we need on the roster.

I hope he gets back soon and Doc finds quality minutes for him on the floor.

Yeah i really didn’t think Walker was gonna be the first one, I guess it’s injury related.
I’m surprised Hudson isn’t already there, and i guess Giddens is waiting for TA to come back.
