Walker is a solid point guard with good strength. He is a steady ball handler but didn’t showcase a consistent jumper in this setting. Right now, Walker is at his best attacking the lane to make plays for his teammates on the kick out.

Much like the EYBL eval below, Walker showed himself to be a steady option at the point guard position. What he lacks in elite level athleticism, he makes up for in pace and consistency.

Walker is a left-handed point guard who can get downhill off of the bounce. He didn’t showcase a specialty in this eval but was solid against All-Ohio. Walker is strong enough to take a bump and still keep playing.

Walker had a solid showing here this weekend putting up 16 points versus Huntington Prep and then 19 in a win versus White Station on Saturday morning. He does an effective job of penetrating the defensive while also staying under control. In all he drew 12 fouls in two games while shooting over 50% from inside the arc. He did not, however, connect on any 3-point jumpers here.en’s

Walker is a young point guard with broad shoulders and a frame that could develop into being powerful. He is a smooth handler as a lefty and he does a good job in keeping his head up to find his teammates. He can hit the open 3 pointer as his release looks smooth. Walker is a role player for this team as he sets the table for Trey Lyles as the main point producer. It will be interesting to see how impactful he is when he is a focal point of a team.
