The Nets’ only All-Star is out for the season. Their only two legitimate scorers are either struggling or sidelined.
Into the breach steps Lonnie Walker IV.
With Brooklyn playing sans Ben Simmons and Cam Thomas (and even Cam Johnson), Mikal Bridges has slumped under the weight of more responsibility. That’s where Walker has stepped in to help, shouldering more offensive burden all while being challenged to do more defensively, and fight through multiple physical hurdles.
He’s welcoming the challenge.
