NBA Draft Pick Kemba Walker: 'I Wanna Support My Parents'

Am liking these good role models. Punks are passe.

The best part is his mother must know this, considering how PISSED she looked last night when Kemba got passed over by A LOT of Euro players. She saw that 8 bedroom home getting cut down to 5.

GO UCONN!!!!!

A good player that is also on the right path. Graduated in 3 years and has a college basketball champion. Go Huskies.

Mr & Mrs Walker: You did a great job! Congratulations on raising a fine son.

He knows who his Dad is? Impressive.

I have no idea who this guys is but bless him, my heart smiled listening to that.

yah. right. 'mom n dad' is a code word for 'strippers'. you didn't know???

What a sweetheart and a great role model.

What a dumbass reporter. There's no NBA team in Vancouver and the Canadian currency is on par (if not higher) than the United States. This isn't 1995...

For those who criticize him and see him to be something other than he his, stop your jealousy! The guy graduated from a prestigious university, won a national championship in the NCAA tournament, was the best player in the tournament (numerous clutch game winning shots) and now Mr. Jordan has hired him to lead his team to the promised land. Don't be so stereotypical, some of you idiots sound like ignorant extremists w/ these comments. . .oh yeah and not to mention his new boss will be giving him the most prized endorsement deal in NBA - a Jordan Shoe deal to go w/ his contract, forget a 5 bedroom house Chris, this guy can afford you. Well deserved.

LAunited: Agreed! Jordan was the smartest player in the game and he picked the smartest player in the draft - on and off the court. Jimmer won all of the academic/player of the year awards but Kemba did it in 3 with honors.
TG he didn't go to Cleveland. They can have Irving. If Jordan can pick up Lamb next year the Bobcats will be golden. Lamb is a lot like Rip Hamilton. Silent but deadly.

"You can't say Kemba Walker doesn't have his priorities in order"

Not that TMZ won't be doing that the first chance they get to tear him down...but first they have to build him up.

65% of NBA players file bankruptcy within 5 years of retirement. Enjoy it while it lasts.

60% sorry...
