Last night, the Boston Celtics lost 116-111 to the Sacramento Kings without their starting point guard, Kemba Walker.
You must be asking yourself why the Houdini has decided to take a peek over at the grass on the other side of the point guard fence, today, then.
Well, you see, Walker’s absence last night was the 13th DNP for the 30-year-old floor general this season. Knee issues kept him out of the first 11 games of the season. During that time, the team amassed an 8-3 record.
Now, look, I know Walker’s absence wasn’t why they won those early-season games.
