Mon Jul 27 201514:37Walker will be released by Heat
Walker, who has been out this summer with an ankle injury, will be released by the Heat, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Walker will likely have to battle for a roster spot wherever he eventually ends up, which includes a possible return to Miami, but the team doesn't currently have room for the injured forward. He averaged 7.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.0 steals, 1.9 three-pointers made and 26 minutes in 24 games with the Heat last season.

Walker (ankle) will not play in Monday's Las Vegas Summer League game, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Walker has yet to play this summer, missing every single one of the Heat's Orlando Summer League games as well. Considering these are mostly meaningless outings, the Heat aren't going to take any chances and push Walker to prematurely return. There's a very good chance he's held out of the rest of the summer, which is a tough blow for a player fighting for a roster spot.

Walker (ankle) will not play in Wednesday's Orlando Summer League game, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Walker missed Monday's game due to an ankle injury, and he'll sit out again Wednesday. It's likely nothing serious, but the team certainly won't take any chances in an ultimately meaningless summer league contest.

Walker (ankle) is uanvailable for Monday's Orlando Summer League game, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Walker should be considered day-to-day moving forward as the Heat are likely just playing it safe by resting him Monday. With approximately three months until the regular season actually begins, this minor ankle issue shouldn't hinder Walker when it matters.

Walker averaged 7.3 points, 1.9 three-pointers, 3.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.0 steal, and 0.4 blocks in 26 minutes per game during 24 regular season games in 2014-15.
Walker spent the last two seasons out of the NBA, playing in the D-League, but a name change (formerly Bill Walker) and some time away earned him a roster spot with the Heat for the second half of the 2014-15 season. He signed two 10-day contracts with the Heat in February and was eventually given a contract for the remainder of the season. Walker saw significant minutes throughout his stint with Miami, earning 13 spot starts. While his comeback was impressive, Walker will be an unrestricted free agent again this summer, and unless he stumbles into a perfect situation, it's unlikely Walker holds consistent standard-league fantasy value next season.

Walker (elbow) is active for Saturday's game against the Raptors, the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Walker was listed as out on the initial injury report Saturday, but his sore right knee won't keep him on the sideline. No matter, he's been capped at 21 minutes over the last four games, during which he's averaged two points (on 15 percent shooting), one rebound, one assist, one steal, and 0.8 blocks in 16 minutes.
Sat Apr 11 201514:46Walker (knee) won't play Saturday against Raptors
Walker (knee) won't play Saturday against the Raptors, the Miami Herald reports.
Walker is missing his second game in a row, this time due to a sore right knee. Expect James Ennis and Michael Beasley to pick up additional run off the bench Saturday. Meanwhile, consider Walker questionable for Monday's outing against the Magic.
Thu Apr 9 201519:18Walker won't play Thursday versus Bulls
Walker won't play Thursday versus the Bulls, the Palm Beach Post reports.
With Walker on the pine, the Heat will rely upon Luol Deng (knee), Udonis Haslem, Michael Beasley (illness), and James Ennis at the forward spots. Until the extent of Walker's injury is known, consider him questionable for Saturday's game against the Raptors.

Walker got the start Sunday, but was held to just two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one assist and two blocks in 19 minutes.
Walker started at power forward with Hassan Whiteside (hand) out, and Udonis Haslem sliding over to center. Walker has played at least 17 minutes in each of his past three games but has scored a combined eight points in that stretch and is a combined 2-for-11 from the field.

Walker is starting at power forward against the Pacers on Sunday with Hassan Whiteside (hand) out and Udonis Haslem sliding up to center, the Palm Beach Post reports.
Walker has averaged 7.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.5 steals, 1.9 three-pointers, and 0.4 blocks in 29 minutes per game through 11 starts this season. He's not great, but his contributions in three-pointers and steals could help someone looking for a desperate streaming option.

Walker was limited to just three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound, one assist, one block and two steals in 17 minutes Tuesday.
Walker started with Udonis Haslem (illness) out at power forward. Despite seeing an expanded role, Walker has scored a combined 11 points in his past three games and is shooting 2-for-6 from the floor in his past two. In his 10 previous starts this season, Walker averaged eight points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 steals.
Thu Apr 2 201519:45Walker will start Thursday's game in Cleveland
Walker will start Thursday's game in Cleveland.
With Udonis Haslem sidelined due to illness, Walker is manning power forward again, despite his 6-foot-6, 235-pound frame. In 10 starts with the Heat this season, Walker has averaged eight points (on 32 percent shooting), 4.1 rebounds, two three-pointers, 1.5 assists, and 1.5 steals in 30 minutes.

Walker stuffed the stat sheet Friday against the Hawks, posting 12 points, nine rebounds, five assists, four steals, and four treys in 40 minutes of action.
Walker is averaging 7.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.9 steals, and 2.0 three-pointers made for the season. While those numbers are far from impressive, he has been seeing increased minutes as a starter lately. He's worth a speculative add in 16-man leagues.
Thu Mar 26 201500:43Walker had 12 points (4-8 FG, 4-8 3Pt), four rebounds, two assis...
Walker had 12 points (4-8 FG, 4-8 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and two turnovers in 28 minutes.
He was chosen to start at over Michael Beasley and doubled Beasley's minutes. If Hassan Whiteside (hand) continues to miss time, it looks like Walker will be the one to shore up the starting lineup in his place.
Wed Mar 25 201519:38Walker will get start Wednesday against Celtics
Walker will get the start Wednesday against the Celtics.
Walker will move into the starting five as Udonis Haslem shifts up to center with Hassan Whiteside (hand) out. Walker scored nine points and had four rebounds off the bench versus Milwaukee on Tuesday.

Walker posted nine points, three rebounds, two assists, two blocks, and three three-pointers in 20 minutes of action Friday against the Nuggets.
Walker has been quietly producing 7.3 points, 4.5 redounds, 1.8 assists, 2.0 steals, and 2.3 three-pointers made over the last four games. These numbers won't win championships, but owners looking for a subtle boost in steals and three-pointers could do worse than Walker, who is massively available in the wire of most leagues.
Mon Mar 16 201519:37Walker will come off bench Monday against Cavaliers
Walker will come off the bench Monday against the Cavaliers, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Walker will return to the bench after getting the start in Friday's loss to the Raptors. Coach Erik Spoelstra will give Udonis Haslem the nod at power forward.

Walker scored eight points to go along with two rebounds, two assists, and four steals in 22 minutes against the Raptors on Friday.
Walker recently signed with the Heat for the rest of the season and currently has a spot in coach Erik Spoelstra's starting lineup. Over his last four games Walker is averaging 29.3 minutes on the court and will likely see around that much run moving forward in the final leg of the regular season.
Fri Mar 13 201511:34Walker signed with Heat for remainder of season
Walker signed with the Heat for the remainder of the season.
As expected, Walker will remain with the team after averaging 8.5 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 27.4 minutes over 10 games (five starts). Given all of Miami's injuries, Walker figures to continue to play a key role down the stretch.

Walker traveled with the team to Toronto with his 10-day deal set to expire, the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
While the Heat have not announced their intentions with regard to Walker's future, the fact that he's with the team in advance of Friday's matchup with the Raptors is an indication that he'll probably be signed for the rest of the season. With his second 10-day deal expiring Thursday, Miami can either sign him for the remainder of the season or opt to let him return to the D-League.
