Ruled out for season Walker has been ruled out for the remainder of the season so he can work out in preparation for the 2022-23 campaign, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Impact Walker dealt with a knee injury earlier in the season but appeared in 13 of the Knicks' 15 games ahead of the All-Star break. He has one year remaining on his contract following the 2021-22 campaign, and his shutdown will allow for Walker and the Knicks to explore potential trades during the offseason. Derrick Rose (ankle) is expected to return to the Knicks' lineup Feb. 25 and should serve as the team's primary point guard, while Immanuel Quickley, Alec Burks and Ryan Arcidiacono should also see additional work in the backcourt. After signing with the Knicks in August, Walker made 37 appearances and averaged 11.6 points, 3.5 assists and 3.0 rebounds in 25.6 minutes per game.

Impact While the Knicks took an ugly loss to the rebuilding Blazers, Walker had easily his best game since December. The veteran is basically a game-time decision for each contest, but he's now started 11 of the last 13 games. During that span, he's averaging just 7.9 points, 2.1 rebounds, 3.3 assists and shooting 37.3 percent from the floor, however.

Cleared for Tuesday Walker (rest) is off the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Jazz.
Impact Walker sat out the front end of the back-to-back set Monday in Utah, allowing Alec Burks to pick up a start at point guard in the Knicks' 113-104 loss. The Knicks' decision to remove him from the injury report ahead of Tuesday's contest implies that Walker's absence Monday was truly a rest day, rather than the result of a flare-up of his arthritic knee. Expect Walker to slot back into the starting five in Denver, especially after Burks turned in a dud of an outing (five points, six rebounds and one assist in 31 minutes) in Utah.

Resting Monday Walker (rest) won't play in Monday's game against the Jazz, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.
Impact Walker will get a rest day on Monday as the Knicks head to Utah for the first leg of their upcoming back-to-back set out West. He is expected to be available for Tuesday's matchup with the Nuggets. The veteran guard is averaging just 11.9 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists across 26.0 minutes per game this season.

Meager output in loss Walker registered seven points (3-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt), one rebound, three assists and one steal over 23 minutes during Saturday's 122-115 overtime loss to the Lakers.
Impact Walker has started each of his last eight appearances, but he's averaged just 6.8 points, 2.5 assists and 2.1 rebounds in 22.1 minutes during that stretch. Alec Burks came off the bench Saturday and outproduced Walker in every major statistical category. The Knicks' point guard position continues to be a revolving door, and there doesn't appear to be a clear frontrunner to seize control of the position, which makes it difficult to trust any of them from a fantasy perspective.
