Goes through practice Walker (elbow) was able to participate in training camp Tuesday.

Impact Walker had a minor procedure to remove loose bodies in his right elbow back on July 19, but it's safe to say that he's 100 percent as the Pacers haven't even mentioned it. Indiana spent their first practice with a clear focus on the defensive end, an area that the rookie is expected to thrive in. His battle for playing time with Obi Toppin is something to watch.

Won't play Sunday Walker won't play in Sunday's Summer League finale against the Pistons due to undisclosed reasons, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.

Impact Walker starred for Indiana in Summer League, averaging 14.3 points and 7.8 rebounds in 30.1 minutes per game across four appearances, but he won't suit up for the finale. It's unclear if he picked up an injury, or if Indiana has simply seen enough from the rookie first-round pick and wants to allow other players to get an extended opportunity. Either way, Walker will turn his sights on preparing for his first NBA regular season.

Leads Indiana in points Walker logged 20 points (8-19 FG, 1-5 3PT, 3-7 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one steal in 29 minutes of Wednesday's 98-87 win over Oklahoma City.

Impact Walker took over a larger offensive role with the Pacers shutting down Isaiah Jackson, Bennedict Mathurin and Andrew Nembhard, and delivered with a team-high 20 points. He fell just one rebound shy of a double-double. He'll continue to be Indiana's top offensive option for the remainder of Summer League.
