KEMBA WALKER'S FIRST basket in a New York Knicks uniform was a simple one.
A couple minutes into New York's preseason opener at Madison Square Garden against the Indiana Pacers, Walker had the ball at the top of the key. He then executed a give-and-go with Julius Randle, darted around a Taj Gibson screen and casually laid the ball in over the arms of Pacers center Myles Turner.
As Walker ran back on defense, he flashed a quick smile toward the Knicks' bench.
