Boston Celtics veteran starting point guard Kemba Walker put up a season-high performance against the Indiana Pacers at TD Garden on Friday night to help the Celtics snap a 3-game losing streak, looking like he’s rounding back into a semblance of the All-Star guard the Celtics signed.
The UConn product put up 32 points and 6 assists on 10-of-19 shooting, going 4-of-10 from 3-point range and a perfect 8-of-8 attempts from the charity stripe against a pesky Pacers squad that refused to lie down. But under Walker’s leadership, the Celtics dug deep and gutted out the much-needed victory to vault the team back into playoff contention.
Watch Walker go to work against Indiana in the video embedded below that was produced by Tomasz Kordylewski.
Hopefully moving forward these kinds of performances are closer to the norm than the exception for the New Yorker — this was a pleasure to see.
