Celtics point guard Kemba Walker, who worked out today, will play a three-on-three on Sunday and if all goes well, he could return to the starting lineup for Tuesday’s tilt against the Nets, head coach Brad Stevens said Saturday (Twitter link).
Walker has missed Boston’s last four games and seven of the last 11 navigating a lingering knee injury. The team has been cautious with Walker’s recovery even though he suited up for Team Giannis during the 2020 All-Star game.
In his first season with the Celtics, Walker has been his usual productive self when healthy. In 46 contests, the 29-year-old is averaging 21.8 PPG, 5.0 APG and 4.1 RPG
