When the Miami Heat signed Henry Walker, many people tied the face with a different name, that of former New York Knicks wing player, Bill Walker.
Well, in fact Henry ‘Bill’ Walker is the same person and the Heat signed Walker to a deal. Walker has played 10 games with Miami, averaging 8.5 points per game, 1 assist and 3.4 rebounds per game.
At the end of Walker’s second consecutive 10-day contract, it seems like Walker will be resigning with the team through the regular season.

Walker’s deal runs into the 2015-16 season. Walker had some big time late in game moments for Miami including a clutch 3 and a big time dunk in some of his first games back to the NBA. He withstood the test, so well in fact that the Heat sent down Goran Dragic’s brother, Zoran, and he joins Tyler Johnson as another 10-day contract guy that will be sticking with the Heat through the season.
