What can I say about Chris Walker?
Chris Walker is one of the most athletic big men in his
class who can run and gun with the best of the best. At 6’9 he has athleticism
oozing from him. After watching many videos and highlight reels of Chris Walker
I can see why he is top 10 in his class. He has the shot blocking ability of
Nerlens Noel, and can get down the court as quick as Ty Lawson. Although he
just finished his junior season in high school I feel that he could be a huge
star in his freshmen year in college. He pushes himself every moment trying to
grab every rebound dishes it to the guards then it’s off to the races. He will
beat everyone down the court for the break away dunk. He has developed some
solid post moves solidifying his presence in the post. He has also recently
received an invitation to the Jordan Brand Classic showing how far he has come
and how much further he has to go.
If I could offer any type of advice to Chris Walker is to be
relentless. Go hard on the court, in the gym, and in the classroom. Most
players get bored with competition around them and you can see them start to
slack off and just rely on their talent. If Chris Walker keeps up his
relentless attitude and is going 110% all day every day, then there will be
nothing this guy cannot do. I would compare Chris Walker to Perry Jones of OKC.
Both are lengthy players who know how to score. They may be a little on the
small side, but that doesn’t affect their game at all. Now where ever he
decides to go all that we can hope for is that the school is the best fit for
him and that he will prosper in the program he chooses. Overall I think the
talent in these players in the past few years has grown tremendously and we are seeing some future stars in the making. Just got to keep your eyes open
for anything and everything.
Now here is a little video of the raw talent Chris Walker has...
