One word comes to mind when discussing Walker: clutch. Kemba was good throughout his Connecticut career, but for a stretch in 2010-11, he was otherworldly.
Walker led the Huskies to the Big East tournament crown and the national championship that season, averaging 23.5 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game as a junior. Late-game heroics came to be expected of Walker by the end of that season, which is the ultimate compliment for the best player on a team.
Walker was the Most Outstanding Player of the 2011 Final Four and a consensus first-team All-American. His ability to create separation – with stepback jumpers and elite ball-handling ability – will always be remembered. Walker was a good player early in his UConn career; by the time he left, he was a legendary one. Anyone who puts a team on his back to win a national championship deserves to be on this list.
