Darrell Walker




Walker was selected to the 1984 NBA All-Rookie team, and was among the league leaders during his career in assists and steals. His best season was in 1989-90 with the Washinton Bullets when he averaged 9.5 points, 8.8 rebounds and 8.0 assists per game. He won an NBA title with the Chicago Bulls in his final season.

Walker has served as head coach for two different teams--the Toronto Raptors and the Washington Wizards . He was the Raptors' second coach, following Brendan Malone , and led the team for a season and a half. In 2000 , he replaced the fired Gar Heard in Washington for half a season (the first coaching "callup" in history, having previously been the coach of the Rockford Lightning of the CBA ), but was then replaced by Leonard Hamilton the next year.

As of February 2005 , Walker is currently an assistant coach with the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets .
