All-Star point guard Kemba Walker remains non-committal on his future with the Charlotte Hornets.
Walker recently said that he will mull things over during the offseason, emphasizing that he will talk with his agent to determine the best course of action for him. Now, the 28-year-old guard doubled down on that and said he still has no idea what he will do.

Unfortunately for Walker and the Hornets, the 2018-19 season didn't go as they planned. They missed the playoffs for the third consecutive year, even though they barely missed it at ninth in the East with a 39-43 record.
The Hornets also have not won a playoff series during Walker's eight-year tenure in Charlotte. If they don't start winning soon, they may end up losing one of the best players in franchise history.
The Hornets can offer more money to Walker over the next five seasons. That amount could hover around the $190 million to $221 million range, while the most another team can offer him is $140 million for four years.
