When will Kemba Walker be back on the floor for the Knicks?

The answer remains murky as Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau continued to say his guard is getting close to being able to play but didn’t indicate when that would be.

Walker missed his ninth straight game Monday with a sore knee after playing some major minutes because of the Knicks depleted roster because of injuries and health and safety protocols.
