Kyree Walker<\/a> appears to finally be headed to college<\/a> after passing the route in 2020.<\/p>\n

According to Joe Tipton of On3,<\/a> Walker will visit Alabama A&M on Monday, May 4. Walker has played in the G League<\/a> and overseas, with his last verified stint being in Mongolia during the 2024-25 campaign. He has also played in Greece and Canada.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe biggest thing is getting an education; it\u2019s never too late to get one,\u201d Walker told <\/span>Glenn Clark Radio<\/a> on\u00a0Feb. 10 about why he is now wanting to go to school. \u201cAnd another [reason] is just to really provide for my daughter.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

25-Year-old Experienced Pro Has Upcoming College Visit<\/h2>\n

Walker is a power wing with a strong frame and is a capable secondary scorer. The athletic 25-year-old thrives in transition and getting to the basket, though he is inconsistent as a shooter. However, defense is his calling card due to the 6-7 small forward’s quickness and ability to guard multiple positions.<\/p>\n

While Walker appears intent on playing college basketball this year, though he doesn’t plan on playing four years, ultimately, he is looking to revamp his basketball career, likely hoping to get another opportunity to show that he can be an NBA<\/a> player.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cA lot of NBA GMs and scouts feel like it\u2019s really good for me to go back to college and revamp myself, Walker said, per Audrey Bengston of the Press Box<\/a>. That\u2019s what I\u2019m doing. I\u2019m not really worried too much about proving myself to anybody. \u2026 I\u2019m going to go and do what I\u2019ve done a lot of times in my career and dominate.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Walker was rated as a four-star prospect by ESPN and a three-star out of Hillcrest Prep (Arizona). Walker committed to Arizona State in 2017 only to decommit in 2018.<\/p>\n

After graduating from Hillcrest Prep, Walker decided to forego college and instead joined the Chameleon BX program, which emphasized skill refinement and physical conditioning tailored to NBA demands. Walker went undrafted in the 2021 NBA draft<\/a> and ultimately landed with the Washington Wizards’ G-League affiliate, Capital City Go-Go, in 2021-22. He averaged 7.7 points and 2.7 rebounds with shooting splits of 51.5\/29.8\/55.8 in 35 G-League games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m a double-double guy every night,\u201d Walker said when talking to Bengston. \u201c\u2026 I\u2019ve got a great motor. I impact the game in many ways. Standing at 6-7 and being able to dribble, shoot,t and be athletic, there\u2019s not much I cannot do out there.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
