Name change: Yes, Bill Walker is now Henry Walker
Here’s the South Florida Sun Sentinel reporting on the newest member of the Miami Heat:
Miami Heat forward Henry Walker considered it a sign of maturity.
Last year the player formerly known as “Bill” started going by his middle name. If his Heat debut was any indication, Walker has already grown up a bunch.
He scored 11 points, including three 3-pointers in Monday’s victory against the Philadelphia 76ers. The plan is for Walker to remain in the rotation the duration of his 10-day contract.
“It’s just my middle name,” Walker said. “I’m just trying to mature and just trying to grow up, trying to change the perception about me.”
