Reportedly, Walker received a stem cell injection treatment in October that should help the injury heal and is now working towards returning to action. The 30-year-old Walker should resume basketball activities this month and, depending on his progress, the Celtics will re-consider his status in the first week of 2021. 

Boston’s president of basketball operations Danny Ainge also talked about Walker’s injury on Monday during his appearance on Toucher and Rich Show and said that the organization is taking a cautious approach with the four-time All-Star.

“We are just being very cautious with Kemba,” said Ainge. “We are maintaining this strengthening program, which he has been very, very diligent in so far, and we’re encouraged that he will be able to return at full speed. But we do not want to rush the program.”

Kemba Walker joined the Celtics in 2019 as a free agent after spending his entire NBA career with Charlotte Hornets. While Walker saw his production dip in Celtics jersey, compared to some of his previous campaigns, he still had a respectable outing in 2019/20.

Walker finished the regular season averaging 20.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 4.8 assists per game.

The trade will see Portland acquiring Kanter while sending Mario Hezonja to the Grizzlies. Memphis will also get TCU’s guard Desmond Bane, No.30 pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, from Boston as part of the deal.

Celtics, on the other hand, is set to receive “future draft compensation” from Memphis.

It didn’t take long for Kanter to react on the deal, writing: “Home, sweet home.” on social media.

Enes Kanter originally joined the Trail Blazers in February 2019, after he was released by the New York Knicks. He ended up playing a significant role for Portland in 2018/19, stepping in for injured Jusuf Nurkic and helping the team to a Western Conference Finals appearance. 

Kanter hit the free agency in the summer of 2019 and agreed to a two-year, $10 million deal with the Celtics. In 58 regular-season games in Boston, he averaged 8.1 points and 7.4 rebounds per game.

Mario Hezonja was Orlando Magic’s No.5 pick in the 2015 NBA Draft but never managed to live up to the expectations that were set for him. He will now try to rebuild his career with the young and talented Grizzlies and hopefully bounce back from a tough campaign in 2019/20 that saw him average just 4.3 points per game.
